Zimbabwe vs India

I didn't think Zimbabwe would beat a strong team like India. Zimbabwe surprised everyone by beating India. India won the toss and decided to bowl. Zimbabwe batted first and collected 115 runs, a target of 116 runs was not a big enough target. Chasing the target of 116 runs in T20 format was very easy. But India went down to chase the target and were all out for 102 runs. Abhishek Sharma, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Riyan Parag, Rinku Singh, Dhruv Jurel, their performance was very bad, if they all could have done well then India would have won. Sikandar Raza and Tendai Chatara both bowled brilliantly. Congratulations to the Zimbabwe team for defeating a strong team India.

Yes it is really surprising how a world champion game that won the 2024 world cup lost the match against a weak team Zimbabwe. Even before the match started I was thinking that India team will win these match but the kind of performance Zimbabwe team has given is really commendable. I think the Indian team will make a good comeback in the next matches and win the series.

However, this is not India's World Cup winning squad. The World Cup squad was different. However, since India won the T20 World Cup a few days ago, losing against a team like Zimbabwe at this moment is a shame for a big team like India. We were definitely expecting to see a better performance from the Indian players. But the team performed very badly.

Every batsman in the Indian squad played badly. Shubman Gill scored 31 runs and Washington Sundar scored 27 runs. No one expected that India would be defeated on such a small target.

The two teams will meet in the second T20 match today. Zimbabwe players are confident. On the other hand, the Indian players will want to avenge the first defeat. I feel Indian players today will not make the same mistake.
