Though Zimbabwe lost the ongoing three-match ODI series 2-0 to the KL Rahul-led Team India in Harare, former Zimbabwe captain and current U-23 team coach Elton Chigumbura is optimistic that his country will do well in the future.
Chigumbura, who represented Zimbabwe in 213 ODIs, 57 T20Is and 14 Tests, is in India to give a team of Zimbabwean young players exposure and match practice. Chigumbura knows what it takes to have a good day against the best of opposition. When MS Dhoni’s team toured Zimbabwe in 2016, his 26-ball unbeaten 54 (1x4, 7x6) guided the Zimbabweans to a two-run win in the first T20I at Harare Sports Club.
