India arrives in Harare following back-to-back bilateral T20I series defeats. India lost their opening T20 international to Ireland by 34 runs, marking Ireland's first-ever victory over the world champions after eight previous defeats. England dominated their series with a 4-0 whitewash, while Ireland secured a 2-0 victory. India have gone five consecutive T20Is without a win, their longest winless streak in the format.

The opening match begins on Thursday at 4:30 PM IST, with Zimbabwe seeking to capitalise on home advantage against a struggling Indian outfit looking to rebuild momentum in the shortest format.
