Zimbabwe have named a 15-man squad for the 3-match ODI series vs Bangladesh starting July 6 at Harare Sports Club. Four players return: Innocent Kaia: Recalled after his maiden Test century of 140 in Zimbabwe’s innings-and-85-run Test win over Bangladesh this week. It’s his first ODI since Dec 2023 vs Ireland. He’s been in top domestic form with 500 runs in the Pro50 Championship. Kaia also scored a one-day hundred recently, for Zimbabwe A on the tour of Bangladesh earlier this month. He has been in stellar form across formats this year even in domestic cricket. He topped the run charts for Rocks in the Pro50 Championship with a tally of 500 runs, including three hundreds and a half-century. In the Logan Cup, the first-class competition, he scored another two centuries and averaged 51.12 to rack up 409 runs from eight innings. Burl had also toured Bangladesh recently with the Zimbabwe A side for scores of 50 and 20 and one wicket across the two one-day games. He also scored back-to-back centuries for Rhinos in Bulawayo back in March, first in a four-day game and then in 50-over cricket. Ngarava will lead the pace attack that also includes Blessing Muzarabani, Brad Evans, Newman Nyamhuri and Ernest Masuku. The list of spinners features two allrounders in Burl and Wessly Madhevere and two left-arm spinner Masakadza. New captain: Richard Ngarava will lead Zimbabwe in ODIs for the first time. He takes over from Sean Williams who is in rehab. Experienced core: Craig Ervine and Sikandar Raza are also in the squad. Raza returns after a stint in the 2026 T20 Blast. Pace attack: Led by Ngarava, with Blessing Muzarabani, Brad Evans, Newman Nyamhuri and Ernest Masuku. Context: This is Zimbabwe’s first ODI since Aug 2025 vs Sri Lanka.
