ICC may allow this serious to be covered under ODI status as Zim is test playing country.

Has that ever happened before?

Highly doubt the ICC would approve ODI status for a bilateral series involving an associate team.

"Status System" in shorter formats has been removed. ICC recently decided to revamp Associate Nation Cricket, by allowing them to play against test playing nations.

Ireland to play England & West Indies. Afghanistan to tour West Indies. Zimbabwe Playing against Scotland and The Netherlands.

Other teams playing in Divison 1 that includes Kenya, PNG, Nepal,Hong Kong, UAE, Namibia will also get some opportunities in comming years.

Its a great move by ICC to include more teams.
