[Stallion__]

Wanted to see all three of Jadhav, Pandey and Sandeep.

Have to settle for only Jadhav today.

 

[Belawal2014]

Oh god, fly in Sanjay Manjrekar and Ravi Shastri.

 

[Statsman]

We have created a team comprising of possibly the most boring 11 cricketers in India.

 

[aniket1911]

murli vijay gone

 

[Abhilash93]

Stuart Binny is the 5th bowler

 

[cricket geek]

vijay gone.

 

[aniket1911]

for raiydu

 

[aniket1911]

somebody deport venkatesh back to India please.. the guy is torture

 

[Statsman]

Battle of the minnows I say. BCCI really messed up at creating a B/ C level team.

 

[Belawal2014]

RR: 2.80

 

[aniket1911]

big big shout. not out given

 

[Belawal2014]

C'mon Jinks, let's go get that 100.

 

[aniket1911]

rahane struggling here.
nd shot.

 

[Belawal2014]

Brian Vitori chucks, I'm sure of it.

 

[Belawal2014]

No speed gun?

 

[aniket1911]

brian vettori is troubling the Indian batsmen. need to keep him attack.

 

[cricket geek]

very slow start.

 

[aniket1911]

is this the first match with new rules?

 

[Belawal2014]

I smell an upset in one of the games.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Indian team management are freaking LOSERS if they think Dhawal is better than Sandeep Sharma.

Idiots.

Sandeep should have gone to Bangladesh and got first priority here.

 

[aniket1911]

run rate is too low. need to make up for it in middle overs. with new rules slogging in last overs won't be easy.

 

[aniket1911]

for rahane

 

[aniket1911]

the problem with Zimbabwe is that they can't close off games. they lack knockout blow. They always look on top in first few overs and then fizzle out. wish they can keep this intensity throughout the game.

 

[Belawal2014]

India coming back nicely.

 

[Saurav]

very poor team full of TTFs.Dont know what purpose Vijay,Uthappa,Bhajji,even Tiwary serve

Rahane himself looks scratchy even opening now

Wont be suprised to lose

 

[Sanzcool]

We are going to lose this 3-0, Zimbabwe r a decent side, we have underestimated them

 

[Saurav]

Indian team management are freaking LOSERS if they think Dhawal is better than Sandeep Sharma.

Idiots.

Sandeep should have gone to Bangladesh and got first priority here.

They go by seniority.

Though Dhawal did good in BD tbf

Sandeep should have played instead of Bhuvi

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Just looked at the india playing XI. Only one word boooooooorrrrrrring. I think its better to watch a documentary on donkeys than watching this indian team play.

 

[cricket geek]

What should be the winning score ?

 

[Saurav]

[cricket geek]

Both are competing, who can play more dot balls ?

 

[Raw deal]

Run rate... 3.27.. Ha ha ha..

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Sehwag, gauti and yuvi must be laughing after looking at this team.

 

[Yatoo]

Rahane = Asad Shafiq

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

[Saurav]

Sehwag, gauti and yuvi must be laughing after looking at this team.

tell me you are joking bro?

 

[Yatoo]

They should have send Bhajji to open. He is the better batsmen than all these clowns

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

tell me you are joking bro?

AM Rahane, M Vijay, AT Rayudu, MK Tiwary, RV Uthappa, KM Jadhav, STR Binny, AR Patel, Harbhajan Singh, B Kumar, DS Kulkarni



This looks like a squad of wanna bees cricketers.

haha, Why india didn't send their full squad? And most of them are IPL stars i guess.
What if by chance Zimbabwe win this match? What will be the reaction of fans and media?

 

[Dee1990]

Lol i totally forgot we were even playing zimbabwe and we're 77/4

 

[leatherface58]

I think the Indian team read PP too much and decided not to bash minnows since it looks bad on the CV.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

IPL fanboys don't care bro. They deserve this squad and humiliation. Itni baar samjha chuka inhe par akal nahi aani.

 

[Dee1990]

Because we have more important series coming up and the main squad need some rest after playing non stop cricket.

 

[JaDed]

There is no point of this squad Bhaag Viru Bhaag is right in a way they could had gone for better.

 

[Convict]

carn Zimbos

 

[SULTAN]

87/5

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Haila 87/5

Do we see an upset?

 

[Saurav]

they should have gone for younger and attacking players like Samson,SKY and Vohra etc

 

[JaDed]

they should have gone for younger and attacking players like Samson,SKY and Vohra etc

Yup i agree.

 

[Saurav]

reached 100

 

[Justcrazy]

Zim would fancy there chances here.

 

[Justcrazy]

Big opportunity for binny here to seal his spot.

 

[Justcrazy]

107/5

29 overs.

 

[Markhor]

No wonder India tried to cancel the tour. Underestimate Zimbabwe in home conditions at your peril.

Dav Whatmore's spell over India continues !

 

[Justcrazy]

24 runs partnership , steady and developing.

 

[Justcrazy]

Cremer starts after drinks.

 

[Sherlock]

I think they can get 220 if they bat well. You never know.

 

[Cricfan4eva]

If this is our bench strength, then selectors better look for alternatives already.

What a pathetic display they're putting up. No wonder the RR is so slow, every fricken one of em is playing to fix their spot. And selection is ridiculous as well, what is Sandeep doing on the bench?

[Asif321]

india are underestimating zimbabwe , this is not that old zimbabwe team its much much improved side with some very good players and playing in home is advantage

 

[Cricfan4eva]

Dav Whatmore's spell over India continues !

Yes they were cancelling the tour because we were afraid of Zimbabwe, which is why after losing to Bangladesh with our A-team BCCi revived this tour and sent a B-team instead, right?

Rayudu and Binny on a rescue mission

 

[#GreenRoars]

lol, never saw IPL, but i have interactions with Indian friends, and honestly before Zimbabwe tours they said e.t.c e.t.c should be in the tam for Tour, and when BCCI announced the squad, they all were very happy.
But tension na len, Binny and Rayudu on a rescue mission

 

[leatherface58]

Rayudu has terrific temperament. He is extremely underrated by Indians. I have always seen him step up when the team needs it.

 

[adarsh_bang]

LOL we are getting beaten by Zim. Now i don't even know what to say.
i suddenly miss this guy

 

[adarsh_bang]

Rayudu has terrific temperament. He is extremely underrated by Indians. I have always seen him step up when the team needs it.

Have a very uninspiring presence about him. Never looks a world beater. We are used to Virat Kohli and Yuvraj Singh.

 

[Justcrazy]

136/5

 

[adarsh_bang]

Make Binny a regular, kick Sir out.

 

[Dios]

Haila 87/5

Do we see an upset?

Not an upset. Zimbabwe are quite competitive at home. India underestimated them big time. Even Pakistan and WI will have to be at their best to beat Zimbos at home.

 

[Justcrazy]

He is not a world beater anyways

 

[Justcrazy]

Good partnership developing here.

 

[#GreenRoars]

200+ and India will easily win this

I was just needling, why so serious

He is performing when no one is. Even Binny is underrated.

If Binny had got 60% of the chances Sir RJ got, he would have made more of an impact.
