You guys are a bit harsh. Lot of Indians were happy for Zimbabwe yesterday even though they won against India.

Commentators, Fans, this is how we are, we will go overboard when it comes to cricket and India does well.. You've got to accept it.
Why the hell should we accept it?

The commentators, I mean. They are shit and offer almost no analysis or anything useful. And then they are unbelievably excited and over the top and biased.

Flower and Tino a hugely refreshing change - they are so significantly better.

As for the 'Indian fans' in the ground - I doubt they have ever set foot in India - they are cretins.

I am personally looking forward to this thread being much longer and having many more posts than yesterdays. :lol:

Our 'fans' (if you can call some of them that) absolutely love it when we lose or do poorly.

The Zim Indians at the ground are a bloody disgrace.

There was not a lot of that in my day. Would have got untidy amongst the spectators.

I can't comment on Indians living in Zimbabwe, but commentators and Casual Indian fans like this. India tour brings in a lot of money for the host nation and casual Indian fans like such commentary. You listen to some of the reputed Indian commentators even in ICC events, they are no good either. That's the way it is.

Very poor performance this by Zimbabwe. Ngarava should be in the playing XI.

Hoping for a good series for Blessing, the visibility in doing well vs India will help his franchise options a lot
