Zimbabwe T20I: Zimbabwe have included uncapped spinner Tapiwa Mufudza and pace bowler Faraz Akram in their ODI squad for the white-ball tour of Sri Lanka happening later this month. The duo, though, are not a part of the T20I squad to be captained by Sikandar Raza.

Craig Ervine is back to lead the ODI side after missing the home series against Ireland in December due to injury, but Sean Williams has failed to fully recover in time to make it to Sri Lanka. Mufudza, the 33-year-old off-spinner, has been rewarded with an ODI call-up for his consistent top performances on the domestic scene.

In 72 List A games, he has taken 105 wickets at an average of 23.58 and economy rate of 4.19, including four four-wicket haul and one fifer. Akram, who has only featured for Zimbabwe in the T20I format, is also in line to make his ODI debut.
