Us Aussies know how it feels to see a team struggling. India can still win it from here, all it takes is one big partnership.
 
Australia is struggling only in recent months. India has been struggling for a long time in ODI series. I don't know this Rao guy, but so far he has a poor average. Time to make it up.
 
Yea You guys am right all it needs is these to get a big partnership and yuvraj staying at the crease right at the end, dont take any risks and keep the strike ticking over, and they must hit the bad balls to the fence for a 4.

COME ON INDIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Horrible batting! Time for Ganguly to look forward to the end of his career!

I wish Dravid gets back captaincy and gets to lead this team to WC2007! Ganguly is finished (unless he makes a miraculous 150+ in the final!). Sehwag - HORRIBLE guy!!! When he fails, his flaws are enlarged. Kaif has failed today but he deserves chances. Dravid - time to wake him up! He has failed repeatedly. Dont say a guy like Dravid needs to be forgived (although he deserves much more chances than Ganguly!).

Lets see if Yuvraj and Rao bail India out!

(Fardin will be finding chances to boast off! But still, dont jump a lot fardin! We'll see how this goes! If anything, a good wakeup for the team)

Your right about ganguly he is costing the Indian team dearley at the moment you cant keep a guy whos failing consistanley and that could be between winning and losing, sehwag deserves more chances he gets 30 odd in one match then a 40 then fails in another match his kind of a up and down player, but we need a slogger like sehwag, dravid only done 1 mistake and he is really a class batsmen, Kiaf's looking good, but thiers a chance for yuvraj and rao to get a hundred and prove themselves here, don'tfoget yuvraj likes these stitautions, the key is for yuvraj to stick thier right at the end.
 
Sehwag seems to like chopping on a lot...only way to dissmiss him currently.

The "Strip India of ODI status" Club is still free for anyone who wants to open it :D:D

First of all, why did stupid Ganguly win the toss and bowl first. We should have batted first. So far this match is looking in ZIM's favor.

Dont forget the games not over yet, and even if India loses to zim, its not the end of the world for India. Look at australia, they lost to bang and they fought back strongly in the odis. Sehwags keeps chopping and needs to correct it.

Thiers a conspiracy about India bowling first in big games, in 1987 world cup semi-final vs eng India bowled first and lost, in 1996 world cup semi-finals vs sri l they bowled first and lost, in 2003 world cup final they bowled first and got sluaghtered.
 
The run rate touches 6. The situations are getting little difficult here for India. Venugopal Rao is struggling to find the gab.

Noooo. India 91/5 (24.2 ov)
24.2 Ewing to Yuvraj Singh, no run, Terrible mix-up and it's a run out! turned away to the square leg region, Rao takes off for a single but Yuvraj stands his ground, Supersub Dabengwa scores a direct hit at the bowler's end and Rao is not even in the frame.
 
India going on well with yuvraj still at the crease and dhoni chipping in with some useful runs 125-5 in 30 overs.
 
With Dhoni in, I can feel India's scoring lifting to good heights.. but Yuvraj needs to have his cool and keep going on at one end!

SIX by Dhoni off Williams! Dhoni seems to have started it (Touchwood!)
 
Zimbabwe need to get Dhoni if they are to win this game. At this point, his wicket is more crucial than Yuvraj's.
 
But Yuvraj can make a difference by himself and JP Yadav is still there in the pavilion! He is a fighter and would love this situation more than 44-8 with 172 to win!!!!!!

Edit: 8 runs off 5 balls!!! 39 runs off 23 balls! India fighting back here (Touchwood)

Yuvraj 80* Dhoni 45*


Yuvraj racing to 97*! Zimbabwe in trouble here! (Touchwood). India need 38 off 45 balls!

Good comeback for India. Zimbabwe had a very good chance here to prove themselves, but they let it get away. As i type this, Dhoni ends the match with a six.
 
What a match for Yuvraj and Dhoni? Amazing!!!!! Dhoni is in the form of his life (Touchwood)! He has been the star for India in the batting this series. Consistency seems to have got to him! 104 runs off 90 balls without getting out in two matches???? Awesome!!!!!

I would rate this performance by India superb though Zimbabwe showed their inexperience and let up in the end when Yuvraj and Dhoni went for the carnage! Yuvraj's was a brilliant innings under pressure which should set him up for the final! He along with Kaif, Dhoni, Yadav and Pathan form the batting backbone for India this series!

I am really worried of India's top order. Whats happening to Dravid these days? he has been off colour this series! Ganguly is terrible (though this is not his worse performance!). Sehwag is terribly mixing good innings with absolute rubbish!!!! Why the hell is Ganguly persisting with himself at the top? Send some one who is in form to open the innings! Send Kaif to open! he did ok in Lanka opening (24 runs) and at least he can give India a better start and can support Sehwag!

One more thing that I am happy with is that for two consecutive matches, India have been successfully chasing 250+ targets and have been winning it! Our batting is getting deeper by the day! Chappell, come on man!!! One more match to go! Finish it off with a bang!!!!
