Zimbabwe have named a 15 man squad for the three match ODI series against Bangladesh.

The matches will be played at Harare Sports Club on July 6, 9 and 11.

Zimbabwe will enter the series with confidence after their big Test win over Bangladesh earlier this week. Innocent Kaia has earned a place in the ODI squad after scoring his maiden Test century in that innings and 85 run victory.
