Rooting for Zimbabwe as well. Gotta go for the underdogs although I really like the Sri Lankan team. That being said, this target just seems too big for them. Poor fielding and pace bowling from them has cost them. Hoping for a good fight from the Zimbabwean batsmen.

Full credit to them for taking their cricket to the next level. Their system has churned out some real good players.

Lankan bowlers are good to begin with, but in home conditions they can be downright monstrous.

Zimbabwe made a big mistake bowling 1st. That could cost them the game I'm afraid.

Disappointed to see Zimbabwe falling like a pack of cards. At least give them a fight.

 at anyone who thought Zim could beat SL in SL. The Zimbabweans are utterly hopeless away from home conditions as evinced by their showings in recent ICC tournaments. Their performance at home is unquestionably getting better but they need to start displaying some fight when playing in these big tournaments abroad like Ireland/Netherlands and now Afghanistan are beginning to do.

The problem is that they're clueless against spin. Can't expect to compete in subcontinental conditions when you're that clueless against spin.

Lankans are a merciless team. Whenever they see the wickets are tumbling they go all in. I have seen it many many time. Ruthless they are! Poor showing from ZIMs. Very disappointed. I actually thought they are better than this.

Zim suffered a miserable defeat ... And a superb beginning for Srilanka...
Zim was no where.. Well played SL..

zim is in a low...remember the guy panyangara- the zim pacer...he apparently got arrested for stealing foods from a shop...
i"t had become an everyday habit for him he would go to spar and get meat, eat in the shop and stuff the takeaway box in the shelves and leave the shop without paying on the fateful day he went to spar in the morning and took Gizzards from the take away section and ate in the shop and when he finished stashed the box in the shelves and left without paying not knowing he was being monitored by CCTV and when alarm was raised to check if he had paid he had already left the shop, so they ignored it and were now on high alert. In the evening he went and took Pork Chops and did the same thing and a guard was watching each and every move he made.... when he was about to step out of Spar he was apprehended and asked if he had paid for the food he ate and he denied eating any food and was arrested and was taken to the CCTV control room where he was shown footage of all his escapades. . . . he was then taken to the police post at Five Avenue and was later transferred to Harare Central Police

So much for T20 being a batsman's game. Aar amader chelerao jei buli shikhe sheta auray.... arrey anyone who has seen Akhtar, Malinga in action in T20 knows these are just man-made rule of thumb. The fact is WE DON'T have a one-man bullies like these players. So we go with the flow and think T20 must be batsman's game, oooh boo hooo, let's play defensive with our mediocre pacers and back them up once they go leaking 80 runs an over.
