Dhoni is a flat pitch bully may be correct but to ignore him on todays performance is not right .Even Ganguly and dravid couldnt do much on there respective first tour of Australia.
Few years back India wanted a wicket keeper who can keep well and score few runs.Now India got a man who keeps well, contributes with the bat when needed (may not be this series ) and can hit the ball out of the ground at will.
Good thing about Dhoni is that he is a quick learner and has produced some good innings for India in the past under pressure.Most of his innings in which he contributed he remained unbeaten and India has won those matches.
No doubt about his leadership quality.He has it in him to become one of the best captain for India. Dhoni should be supported for his courageous decision to go with youngsters for ODI.

The Don was the greatest cricketer this world has ever seen. If you cannot appreciate that you should stop watching cricket!
Sachin is a legend in his own right. He has now scored another century and his strike rate in this Adelaide test is even better then Sehwag!
If you cannot appreciate Sachin who is the Indian legend of cricket, then who do you think is a traitor? Think about it!!!

So, Ganguly only told that to discourage Tendulkar. He should have blamed other non-performing players. But, Ganguly is a traiter He threw shirt when India won unexpectedly (thanks to Kaif- yuvi) partnership and always hid behinf when India was in real crisis (WC 2003 after first 2 matches). India was in search of a good opener in Pakistan and on a nearly dead pitch Dravid offered him to open. He not only denied that but fought with Dravid in public. And the same guy later says his average would have been better if had come at number 4 position. All these years he only hated Tendulkar and tried to push him down. There is no point in talking about such coward people.

Thats why Sachin performs was down for some time in his playing years.Both cap.Gangully and vcap.Dravid have to pay it at last. And people talking about sachin not able to win india the world cup you see the world cup 1996/2003 he was not supported by other team members. All the team won the world cup was not won or be in semi and final of world cup by any player single handed.sachin has done that. 20/20 was not won by yuvi alone in fact he missed one important knock-out match.

Ganguly is a coward actually and not a leader. 1. In 2003 WC, he tried to push Sachin down in first 2 matches. Result everyone knows. 2. When people got angry and threw stones at Kaif's house, Ganguly went hiding and did not even face media. Later Dravid and Sachin appeared before media and asked everyone to calm down. In the 3rd match, Ganguly was forced to open with Sachin and the result was India could reach final. Yuvi supported well and bowlers performed well. But there was no pressure on Yuvi as asking rate was very low by the time Sachin was out. And our bowlers only perform whe they have really good score on board first. Ganguly's contribution 100 against Kenya and Namibia. 3. When Dravid asked Ganguly to open on a very flat pitch, not only he refused that but created a shameless scene on the ground. he should have kept his differences in the dressing table. And now this guy after scoring big scores (again on flat picthes in India) blamed that his average was low because he came down under!!! Wow.. he need to explain this logic to Aussie players who have good averages even at position 6 and 7. BTW, he was captain for so long and surely he had chance to come up on many occassions? So who is to be blamed? 4. This guy admired Aus team when everyone (include Aus media) was unhappy about the way they played cricket. At the end of the day, Ganguly succeeded only because some key players were in form. Sachin failed because Dravid/Ganguly didn't play well under him.
