Anyone worried that one of the minnow (UAE, Ireland or Zim) will beat us

On our day, we are quite capable of pulling it off too, so far I have noticed that these guys dont give up so fast Sorry IRE and ZIM are not even complete Minnow

I don't think India will loose to any of these. Ireland may have a 1-2% chance but they have to play really well and India have to do really bad to loose from them.

I won't worry on the actual result - that they will beat us. An off match is not going to hinder our progress to the knock outs. More worried if we are so poor to be beaten by them. It will reveal the vulnerabilities come the knock outs.

No. I somehow have more trust in this batting than any batting. I don't think we will choke this bad that we will lose. Though I do expect us to run close by Zim or Ireland when we are defending some total. Like our bowlers not able to get their wickets easily etc.

UAE no chance... Match at Perth... They will struggle more than us... Ireland or Zim, maybe... Both matches in NZ... Small grounds... Some KOB kind of innings might spring up...

If we don't lose early wickets to Ireland, I don't see them troubling us. UAE absolutely no chance. Expecting 350+ if we bat first ZIM has got pedestrian death bowling. Middle order batters are fine. New ball bowlers are also OK. Again 375+ if we bat sensibly early on I don't think we should think of resting anyone unless there's an injury when playing against Ireland/ZIM

We should beat all of them convincingly. We probably shouldnt be experimenting too much, though I would like to see Dhoni, Jadeja or Ashwin bat up the order to spend more time in the middle. Binny could be given a go.

I don't think so. Unlike the earlier teams, we are quite clinical and more importantly there's always belief that we can get back and win the game. A prime example of this would be the Stuart Binny game against Bangladesh.

we have decent points on the board. not worried if anything a minnow defeat might prompt some much needed changes. In T20WC 2014 we carried Yuvi and it cost us badly in the finals.
