Harare, July 13: Pacer Tushar Deshpande was handed over his debut cap by Team India in the fourth T20I against hosts Zimbabwe on Saturday.

After winning the toss, India captain Shubman Gill opted to field first. India effected one change with Deshpande making his international debut in place of pacer Avesh Khan.

The changes of course means India will once again depend on batting all-rounders Abhishek Sharma and Shivam Dube to fill in the fifth bowler's quota. Of course, Gill may use his opening partner Yashasvi Jaiswal's leg-break skills if he feels confident.

Zimbabwe too had one change in their playing XI as they roped in Faraz Akram in place of Wellington Masakadza.

India lead the five-match T20I series 2-1. Zimbabwe after surprising the Indians in the tour opener, however lost two matches consecutively. 

Squads:

India XI: Shubman Gill (Captain), Sanju Samson (wicket-keeper and Vice Captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Abhishek Sharma, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Shivam Dube, Rinku Singh, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Tushar Deshpande and Khaleel Ahmed.

Zimbabwe XI: Sikandar Raza (Captain), Wessly Madhevere, Tadiwanashe Marumani, Brian Bennett, Dion Myers, Johnathan Campbell, Clive Madande (wicket-keeper), Faraz Akram, Richard Ngarava, Blessing Muzarabani and Tendai Chatara.
