Zimbabwe tour of India

For the first time in over 15 years, Zimbabwe are scheduled to tour India and will take part in one Test and three ODIs. The schedule for the series is yet to be announced. However, the tour could be in jeopardy as the IPL is slated to get underway in the middle of March and dates could get clashed if the T20 extravaganza starts early.

In all likelihood, this could be MS Dhoni's last series as a player in India.
