The matches will take place in Stockbridge on Thursday, June 15 and Saturday, June 17.

The teams last met in India during the ICC World T20 in 2016 when Zimbabwe won by 11 runs.

Earlier that same week the already announced World Cricket League Championship clashes with Namibia take place at the same ground on Sunday, June 11 and Tuesday, June 13 respectively.

Scotland head coach Bradburn said: “This is brilliant for Cricket Scotland to be able to host a home series against a full member nation.

“These will be the first full member ODIs that I have been involved in outside of a World Cup. The players are desperate to match their skills against Zimbabwe on home soil.”
