*Unofficial* India in Zimbabwe 2015

[weldone]

McCullum's recent form is a bit shaky.

 

[Contra]

BTW. Dhawan is developing quite a good ODI record. Average of 44 and SR of 90. Good for any opener.

Not to mention that he's been our best bat in the 2 most recent ICC ODI events. Clutch player in the ODI format for India.

I do feel that we can send Rohit down the order in T20's though, I don't like him opening in T20's as compared to ODI's as there is less time to get set. I'd go with Rahane/Dhawan at the World T20 for India.

 

[Pratters]

Nah we need Ashwin for all formats, after how he's bowled in Australia test series and World Cup

The amount of cricket being played nowadays, having a spinner play in all three formats can be disastrous. Look at Herath.

I didn't say he has to play all games. I'm fine with him being rested from some low-profile limited overs series (e.g. this Zimbabwe one).

 

[Pratters]

As long as his work load is managed, it's fine. I doubt that will ever happen though. We never think too much on these lines.

New Zealand isn't one of the countries permitted for this stream, but it could work for some of you.

 

[cnerd123]

Not available in HK either.

Booo.

 

[Kippax]

Zimbabwe now using a white Duke at home, according to comms.

 

[indiaholic]

I am hoping we lose a couple of matches due to bad captaincy. Don't see why our limited overs specialist captain needed the rest.

 

[harsh.ag]

What the hell's going on with the run rate??

Anyone watching this game? How's the pitch looking?

 

[Kippax]

Yeah this white Duke ball they've introduced has been swinging and nipping around.

 

[Burner]

Good to see that all the batsmen have accepted the opportunity with open hands...

 

[harsh.ag]

Good show, good show

 

[cnerd123]

Hahaha this is awesome.

 

[weldone]

I was always expecting this one to be a close series.

Rayudu is fighting it out. Hope Binny, Axar and Bhajji can give him company till the end.

If the new white white duke ball is nipping around too much, that's good news for Bhuvi, Binny and Dhawal.

 

[cnerd123]

Its sarcasm. The ball swung a bit initially but hasn't done a thing since. Decent pitch too. Just awful batting.

 

[weldone]

Drop the sarcasm/pessimism. All these guys are playing in Zimbabwe for the first time. And Zimbabwean ODI cricketers aren't exactly clueless amateurs. Also, we can still win this game.

 

[G.I.Joe]

Suck on this, Bangladesh. I knew you guys weren't good. Turns out we're just a ****ty team.

 

[weldone]

Number of times India has been 5 down for less than 100 in ODIs against Zimbabwe in Zimbabwe = 4

 

[weldone]

should get around 225 here, considering 5 people outside the ring in last 10
