First ODI match against Zimbabwe..! Who has a chance..!?

The first ODI between india and zimbabwe starts on the 18th. Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, rishabh pant, and other players have been rested in this series. KL rahul, who is fully fit, will return as the captain of the indian team. The series has attracted a lot of attention among indian fans as it has given opportunities to many young players.
Veteran shikhar dhawan will be the opener. Shubman Gill played with dhawan in the west indies series. But with rahul returning in this series, he is expected to play as the opener. Thus, Shubman Gill can play in the 3rd row. In this series, it is the middle row of the indian team that has raised the expectations of everyone. This is because india has chosen players who have absolutely no experience in this series. deepak Hooda can play as the 4th man and sanju samson as the 5th man. washington sundar was expected to be the 6th player.
But due to his injury, opener rahul Tripathi may get a chance at No. 6 in the middle order. All-rounder Axar patel has been given a chance by the selectors as the 7th player. Following this, Sardul Thakur or deepak can be selected as fast bowlers who can bat. Similarly, Avesh Khan, Siraj, and kuldeep yadav could occupy the last 3 spots.
