India were scheduled to play three ODIs and three T20Is against Sri Lanka from June 24 while the Zimbabwe tour, which included three ODIs, was to start on August 22. "The Indian Cricket Team will not travel to Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe owing to the current threat of COVID-19. Team India was originally scheduled to travel to the island nation from 24th June 2020 for three ODIs and as many T20Is and to Zimbabwe for a series comprising three ODIs starting 22nd August 2020," a BCCI media release stated.
The BCCI also confirmed that a camp for its contracted players will only happen once it is "completely safe to train outdoors". Earlier, Sri Lanka Cricket had announced that India's visit in June won't go ahead as per plans. "The India National Team Tour of Sri Lanka, which was scheduled to take place during the month of June, 2020 will not go ahead, as scheduled," stated an SLC media release. Meanwhile, the two boards remain committed to the FTP and will look at an alternate window for the limited-overs series. India's last international assignment was against South Africa which was cancelled mid way due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
