Zimbabwe have won the toss and asked India to field first in the third and final ODI of the three-match series at Harare Sports Club here.

The Mahendra Singh Dhoni-led side have made only one change in the squad. Faiz Fazal will replace Karun Nair to make his international debut.

The hosts, however, have made number of changes in the squad. Malcolm Waller, Timycen Maruma, Tawanda Mupariwa, Nevill Madziva and Donald Tiripano have all been given opportunity to play the inconsequential match.

India have an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series following their eight-wicket win in the second match against the African nation.

The Men in Blue, who had registered back-to-back series whitewashes against Zimbabwe in 2013 and 2015, will aim to complete a hat-trick.

Meanwhile, Zimbabwe will try to regain their lost pride by making a competitive finish in the last match.
