India has left out two-time T20 World Cup-winning keeper, Sanju Samson, from the T20I squad for the three-match series against Zimbabwe, starting later in July. Samson, however, is not the only marquee player to miss out as frontline quicks Arshdeep Singh, Harshit Rana and Prasidh Krishna, alongside Washington Sundar and Ravi Bishnoi, have also been omitted. While the selectors haven’t mentioned whether Samson and others are rested or dropped, they have included several newcomers, including Prabhsimran Singh and seamers Yash Thakur and Ashok Sharma. Left-arm spin all-rounder Harsh Dubey has also been included.&nbsp;On the other hand, lanky all-rounder Shivam Dube has replaced injured Nitish Kumar Reddy for the three-match ODI series against England, starting July 14 at Edgbaston.<h3>India’s T20I Squad for Zimbabwe Series –</h3>Shreyas Iyer (captain), Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, Abhishek Sharma, Tilak Varma (vc), Ishan Kishan (wk), Shivam Dube, Suryansh Shedge, Rinku Singh, Harsh Dubey, Varun Chakaravarthy, Prince Yadav, Yash Thakur, Ashok Sharma, Mayank Yadav and Prabhsimran Singh (wk)<h3>Sooryavanshi included</h3>Fresh from his India debut at 15 years and 99 days, teen sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi has also retained his place in the T20I side for the away series in Zimbabwe. Against England in the recently concluded 2nd T20I, Sooryavanshi became the youngest Indian men’s debutant, breaking Sachin Tendulkar’s long-standing record of 16 years and 298 days.&nbsp;Also read| <a href="https://www.wionews.com/sports/will-vaibhav-sooryavanshi-s-debut-at-15-increase-chances-of-success-cricket-coach-shares-what-he-requires-to-repeat-ipl-form-1783325987341">Will Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's debut at 15 increase chances of success?
