International cricket is in full flow at the moment. July seems to be busiest month of the year with more than 50 international matches across Men’s and Women’s cricket set to be played. Zimbabwe and Bangladesh will also lock horns in the African nation later this month in all the three formats. The Tigers will face Zimbabwe in their own den in a one-off Test, three ODIs and as many T20 Internationals.

The Bangladesh side has already reached Zimbabwe and will play a two-day practice game starting from July 3. They are also scheduled to play a One-Day warm-up game after the Test match. The visitors have included Shakib Al Hasan in Tests again after missing the Sri Lanka series to play in the Indian Premier League (IPL). The veteran Mushfiqur Rahim will miss the T20Is as he requested for a leave from the busy schedule.

Meanwhile, the hosts Zimbabwe have named four uncapped players in the Test squad. Chivanga Tanaka, Joylord Gumbie, Takudzwanashe Kaitano and Dion Myers have received the maiden call-up to the Test team. The home side is yet to name the ODI and T20I squad for the tour. While the one-off Test will be played from July 7, the ODI series will commence on July 16 with the T20Is to be played on July 23, 25 and 27.
