Talking about the fantasy league, the extremely skewed performance of Rohit Sharma has effectively eradicated any chance of winning by a team not having him. Now the competition is among the top 3 or 4.

ya pretty much. at least they didn't have him as their TP. The gap between me and spitty is 500+. so totally over me. now my only goal is to beat nadim.

zimbabwe bowling is very very disciplined. they just try to bowl on a good line and length and sets field accoriding to bowling.
bd has no discipline and sets fielding for bad bowling. thats too negative of BD.
although we have much more talented bowlers than zimbabwe.

India finally managed 194 runs in 50 overs. Not too bad considering they were 7 down for 128. Zimbabwe failed to push for the final kill.
India's performance should be a big worry for the Indian fans. The team is full of IPL stars, the future of Indian cricket. The gap between Dravid Tendulkar era and Kohli Vijay era appears too big to undergo a smooth transition.

India's batting future is looking bleak in the post-Tendu era.

Big stars in the Indian team (I think) refused to go to Zimbabuwe. Luxury & lucrative ad businesses were more important to them than team performance (no source, just my speculation).

The team selection is idiotic and disrespectful to Zimbabwe. At least the Lankans picked most of their regulars with a few newcomers and had their vice-captain lead the team. But this Indian team is farcical. A senior like Gambhir or Yuvraj should have been captain. What have they done to deserve a break? Getting dumped without winning a Super 8 game two years in a row and they deserve a break? I hope the Zimbos thrash them by ten wickets. Man I can't wait to see what the Indian Test team will look like without Tendulkar, Dravid and Laxman.

Zim 85/0
man this match reminds me so much of BD vs Ind in WC07. though Zim had a much better start than us.
Ya,the Indians are once again being complacent by selecting these players in the team.
I don't think the blame is on the Ind cricketers but on the selectors.

also look at the zimbabweans .....
BD bowlers have more talent than us but the zimbabwean bowlers have more discipline.
bad batsman have more talent in strokeplaying but zimbabwean batsman have better gritt determination and better selection of shots.

This feels so good..and look at ICF..equinox talking smack 2 them and now their like oooo well BD sucks..getting all defensive now huh Indians? Cocky basterds..I hope they get humiliated even more now..this just shows how arrogant and disrespectful the indians are..why pick a team full of amateurs? What are the youngsters gonna gain from getting smacked by the zimbos? MMW India is gonna fall in the long run once their stars retire and teams like Sri Lanka will emerge..cant tell you how good this makes me feel..

how thrilling for ZIM fans. back to back wins vs. IND (assuming no miracle comeback today), an ODI and T20 win over WI in the Caribbean, warm up world cup wins against PAK and AUS (both semifinalists in the event).
Who knows what they could've done in the T20 world cup if both of their matches were not rain effected.
Looks like our #9 spot is on someone's radar.

The thing that really annoys me the most is how India has failed 2 invite us after 10 years of test cricket..and they say because of them we are still in test cricket? Well India I dont think you were trying 2 help us at all..they pretty much wanted us 2 be thrown in2 the wolves while not wanting any development 4 us..look at England..they are pretty much the bosses of cricket but they've invited us, so has every test country except these arrogant snobs..and their not that great either..even with those stars we gave them a run for their money..India needs spankings like these more often so they could actually get back on earth and realize their just an overrated side..I mean what have they done significant these last few years 2 gain all this respect?

I doubt. I saw the game, and this ZIM did not look too different from the one we played a while back. I still think a 5 match series between BD-ZIM would go 4-1 or 3-2 in our favor.
But India some some real issues here, they send their A team bowling line up[well, it's still the 2nd best bowling line up of #1 test team] and they have no answers to the Zimbabwean batsmen! I believe our 2nd bowling line up, currently consisting of Rasel, Dolar, Shuvo, Enamul can do better than this Indian bowling line up.

They got complacent, sent a bunch of overrated noobs and Zimbabwe took advantage of it as they should. And I say that without any intention of taking anything away from Zimbabwe.
So what does this mean as far as t he conclusion of this tournament is concerned? India still have a slight chance of making it to the finals, yeah? I'm more concerned about whether Zimbabwe will get kicked out - I don't want them to.

well done Zimbabwe...
does touring Zimbabwe means too little for BCCI? But I bet the Indian fans will differ.... I am sure they dont want to see 'Team India' (doesnt matter who is in the team) to literally get thrashed twice by Zim...
