The zip is flashable, but without the twrp, you can't flash that way.
Instructions to flash (noob friendly):
YOUR BOOTLOADER SHOULD BE UNLOCKED
1. Flash OOS 11 on both slots (Use local upgrade option/flash via fastbootd).
2. Check using this app if u have OOS on slot_b:-

1-2. (ALTERNATE WAY) - Flash OOS to slot_b via fastbootd and set the active partition as slot_b.
3. Download the latest Pixel experience ROM.
4. Download and install Python3 on your PC (
TICK THE ADD PYTHON TO PATH OPTION):-
https://www.python.org/downloads/
5. Download payload dumper and extract its zip:-

6. The Pixel Experience ROM should be on ur PC.
7. Now extract the Pixel Experience ROM.
8. Put the "payload.bin" file from the extracted ROM file to payload dumper/payload_input
9. Run payload dumper.exe
10. Wait for all files to be extracted.
11. Now install adb and fastboot drivers (Skip to step 13, if you already have it):-
https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
12. Extract the adb and fastboot drivers zip and add that folder to path (if you don't know how to add a path, google it).
13. Enable USB debugging via developer options on your phone and after that connect your phone via USB to PC.
14. Now go to payload dumper/ payload_output folder and open a command window there.
15. On the command window, type the following commands one by one:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot -w
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot fastboot
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot --disable-verity flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot --disable-verity flash vbmeta_system vbmeta_system.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash system_ext system_ext.img
fastboot flash product product.img
fastboot flash odm odm.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
fastboot reboot
16. Done! Enjoy Pixel experience ROM
For updating subsequent builds of Pixel Experience ROM, download the latest build, follow steps 7-10, 14-15. But in step 15, skip the "fastboot -w" command.
