VVS Laxman and his support staff at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) are likely to accompany the Indian team to Zimbabwe for a five-match T20I series starting July 6. Gautam Gambhir is anticipated to begin his coaching tenure from the Sri Lanka tour.

The squad for the Zimbabwe series will be announced later this week, with young IPL performers currently undergoing a camp under Laxman's guidance. Gambhir, favorite to become the head coach of the senior men's team, will likely start mid-July when India travels to Sri Lanka.

Laxman and the NCA team may travel with the squad to Zimbabwe, typically filling in during occasional breaks for Rahul Dravid and the primary coaching staff. A young squad will head to Zimbabwe, featuring notable debutants Riyan Parag, Abhishek Sharma, and Nitish Reddy, overseen either by Hardik Pandya or Suryakumar Yadav as captain.
