"Morgan Topping gains his first international call up at senior level having recovered from injury which prevented him making his debut against South Africa last year," said Andrew White, National Men's Selector. "He has demonstrated key attributes needed to perform at international level over recent Wolves and Academy fixtures and we wish him well.

"It's going to be exciting to see our two young spinners and the likes of Ross Adair again in action alongside the experienced players and we do, of course, have the return of Josh Little who had a big impact the last time we were in Zimbabwe.

"We also have Gareth Delany and Barry McCarthy returning from injury, while Craig Young misses out in the T20 format on this occasion."
