Look at the number of matches played by Dhoni,its immature.On real terms he has just begun his career,and the people just little knowledge ,just looking at the hipes created by Ads and faulty news channels,one wonders where we are going .Look at for example Michal Clark,he has played more numbers of Tests and ODIs,but he is just behaved in the team as new- cumer.The Aussues seniors treat him like fresher,no pressure created by media if he fails in 3-4 innings.Can it happen to any Indian cricketer?The answer is no.Its rediculas ,one gets no respite from the TV news channels whose so called cricket experts start barking like a galli dog ,with poor selectors wondring with big eyes as if they had made big crime.

Very rightly said buddy, I totally agree with you. Media and news channel are the persons to be blamed for all this. In one innings they score a century they become the hero, the next match they flop they become zero. These news channel don't have anything to cover their 24hrs news network. They just want masala news they are either behind cricketers or Abhi-Ash honey moon. Come on give a break..... all these news channels should be banned completely.

I agreed with you bhupindersingh bindra, but apart from the selection, performance there is a big matter called money. It is no where no loss to any cricketer or the boards. Media also getting money over there. So we can blame now only the fans. If they stop it, then the players will be alright. Even before hair cutting show rooms fans are there. Then what to do?

i agree with u bhupindersinghsantapapudum bindaramalingachapathi. your parents must hav been ambitious giving u such a long name only for u to turn out to be a rediff forums cricket analyst getting nowhere in life,
Dhoni moving up to fourth place is not a very big achievment, that also against the minnows like Bangladesh. Against Bangladesh also , they are struggling. I bet next tour to England is going to a big flop, as the ball will swing a lot, and then only their true potential will come out. Even the Grannies in England can bowl India out.

You idiot! Rankings are not based merely on a specific series. There are a combination of factors. Acquire some knowledge in Cricket before writing something in public. Otherwise, your immaturity and lack of knowledge would be exposed worldwide.

he is not a potential player who is mainly interested in adveritsements. so what ever rank he achieve, it wont matter
We INDIAN'S are really shameless . Any one right now really interested about CRICKET . We are IDIOT'S enjoying after beating WEAK BANGLADESH .
Did we ever thought about our REAL STRENGTH ? This is the time to TALK ABOUT OTHER GAMES, WHERE POLITICS does not exists. OUR BCCI wants money from indian crowd and make our cricketer RICH - and they will bring SHAME FOR INDIA, THIS IS THE PHYLOSOPHY.
