Chivanga, 31, made his Test debut against the West Indies in February 2023, returns to the national set-up after recovering from an injury sustained during his second and most recent Test played by Zimbabwe - against Ireland in Belfast last year.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Zimbabwe Cricket (ZC) said Chivanga\u2019s return provides a timely boost to Zimbabwe\u2019s pace bowling options ahead of the much-anticipated Test against Ben Stokes-led England at the iconic venue located in Nottingham.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The four-day Test match marks Zimbabwe\u2019s first Test appearance on English soil in over two decades, with the last match having taken place in 2003, which was also the debut game of legendary fast bowler James Anderson.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The upcoming Test will also be Zimbabwe\u2019s first international game in any format in England since 2004. Zimbabwe will also be paid a \"touring fee\" by the hosts\u2019 board, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), marking the first such instance of this happening in the modern-day cricketing world.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
After the landmark Test match against England, Zimbabwe will also play a four-day encounter against South Africa from June 3-6 at Arundel, with the game serving as vital preparation for the Proteas ahead of facing Australia in the ICC World Test Championship final, set to happen from June 11-15, at Lord\u2019s.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
