Looks like India might lose the series lol :misbah Rahul out as well.
 
India's T20 middle order is the biggest worry here absolutely no big hitter ,we are probably going to lose this.
 
How does this Kedhar Jadhav guy manage to score runs in domestics?

And is Mandeep Singh our best reserve T20 opener?
 
Pandey was the only one would have taken to some score to defend. Unless the pitch is bowler friendly it is unlikely this Indian bowling unit is going to defend <120

I don't rate this Mandeep guy. From what i have seen KL Rahu and Manish Pandey are better players than Mandeep, Rayudu, and others.
 
Dhoni got hit on right eye it says! How serious? (Anybody watching live?)
 
i think its time for MSD to give up t20s and hand it over to virat or rohit sharma
 
When I see the scorecard for india's t20 match , I feel I like I am looking at an IPL team's scorecard. These players all came through IPL.

The Indian Bowling has got teeth and also depth (which lacked in batting). Bumrah, Kulkarni, Sran, Chahal & Axar is formidable (at least 80% as good as India's first choice bowlers!). They can definitely defend a total like 140 against a team like Zim. Zim will have to bat really well to get to this score!
 
Sran looks like the best bowler in Asia right now.. better than Musrafizz n Ameer for sure
 
Zimbabwe deserve to win this, India have been pathetic in this T20 series. It's time to get rid of the dead wood like Rayudu and even Dhoni who has been way below average in T20s for quite some time now.
 
So India gonna lose a series in Zimbabwe?

Would be funny if they do.

And lame.

Cmon yaar. Somehow defend this total.

When you select useless Rayadu and worthless bowlers, this is bound to happen.

Where are Sarfraz Khan, Pant, Nair etc? These are the future of Indian Cricket. Not a 31 year old rubbish Rayadu who already peaked and will never be good enough to break into the senior team and establish a spot for himself.
 
KL Rahul is a very good Test batsman and a decent ODI player. But he is not a T20 player. He looks awkward most of the times when trying to hit. He is not a game changer and him coming as opener will only mean that India will always get a slow start.
 
BCCI - stop sending B n C grade teams for T20 series abroad even if it's against Zim or Ireland .... Hopefully this is serves them as a lesson

Much better opener than the dangerous Dhawan who has a strike rate of 110 on T20s. Even today, he looked good and was striking well while he lasted.
 
Dhoni should have really quit after World T20. Will get an Afridi esque send off now.
 
Our batsmen have similar trend like Zimbabwe. Either slog blindly or dot
 
Zimbabwe is playing like our middle order batsmen Akmal, Sarfraz and Malik in the world cup
 
JimBombay Choking.

They need one good over where they score in excess of 15 runs.

Captain ji is hogging a spot too.
 
9 off 5, game over....

Sran- remember the name next time you want to know the meaning of mediocrity
 
Go Zimbos. Indian team do not deserve this one
 
If you cannot defend 21 in last over against Zim then you dont deserve to play.
India barely managed to save izzat
 
India win the series by the skin of their teeth. Zimbabwe had too much to do late on.
