"shubman-gill"

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli struggled with the bat, while the formidable spin duo of R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja also failed to make a significant impact

If the hosts endured their first defeat after 18 consecutive Test series victories, New Zealand celebrated their first ever series-victory on the Indian soil in nearly 70 years.

Apart from Gill, a few more important players will also be rested keeping the the three- Test series against New Zealand in mind

Gill, who narrowly missed out on selection for the T20 World Cup, was one of India's standout performers in their 4-1 series win over Zimbabwe, concluding in Harare on Sunday.

Gill's unbeaten 58 helps Men in Blue secure third consecutive win, sealing the series 3-1 with one game left on Sunday.

A T20I fest awaits on Saturday and Sunday as India and Zimbabwe face off at the Harare Sports Club for the final two matches of the five-game series.

This will be the fourth time that Zimbabwe will host India in a bilateral men's T20I series, having previously faced off in 2010, 2015, and 2016, respectively.

Set a target of 163, GT completed the chase with five balls remaining. Sai Sudharsan top-scored with 45, while David Miller and Shubman Gill chipped in with knocks of 44 and 36 respectively.

Gill was the Orange Cap winner in the last edition, scoring 890 runs in 17 matches at an average of 59.33 and a strike rate of over 157.8, with three centuries and four fifties. His best score was 129.

While announcing the winner, Indian fielding coach T Dilip said that throughout the series against England, Indian players displayed "extraordinary commitment" while fielding.
