It is a commercial decision of the Cricket Board - profits from Zimbabwe tour if probably very less than that of IPL.
Second string team will produce second string performance betweren 2 teams - LOSE
India's image is of no value for them.
If players wish to take rest (injury is an exception, fully sympathasise with Kohli), why to send "India" team - send "School" teams for friendly matches.
Do you all remember when told reporters before ICC World Cup 2011 that he would require young team members for the world cup. Then how could he tell reporters now that he can play 2019 world cup!! He should retire gracefully.
Congratulations. Mr. Dhoni you are my favourate player after Mr. Saurav Ganguly, but you have to Improve your Game & Batting Position.
As on date Kohli giving consistence performance in all format. Now time for you change your batting position from 7 to 3 or 4 & prove you are the best player in world not a captain.

Why not look at other players of other communities? Why so hopelessly partial, and you expect others to be secular?

It is a good thinking that an young Indian team is being lead by a good captain. It is a good chance for the youths to learn from the great and will be good for the future Indian cricket. It is just like that Dhoni is going like a playing manager, trainer or a coach. No question of degrading Dhoni. Had Dhoni accepted this it is good for young budding cricketers.
