BCC EYE will pay this much to its sweepers and peons to keep their mouth shut for what goes on inside the bed rooms and boardrooms..Poor Kiwis..they should get more !!
its not the mistake of dhoni alone. its our mentality in ind that whenever, ind wins any test in the series, v start preying that all the remaining tests become draw or prey for varun devtaa to come so that v return with 1-0 series win.

just dont forget the big captains ,,, Gangully Kapil Azhar and others who were much batter than this Dhoni ... who still does not know thw way of batting like a batsman ,,, have u ever seen him battingv dont u fell the way he bats is not like the way a classical batsman bat,,, afterall he got the readymade team who was having enough potential to defeat any of the side sourav was skipper under him he has played ,,,, still he has lot to prove lets hope the luck favours him all through his carrer if not he will be in very bad conditions as compared wht our ex-captianed of india has faced after leaving captaincy

Good joke man... You seem to be anti Dhoni.. First of all, he is a wicket-keeper and not a specialist batsmen. Secondly his batting average in ODI and Tests is comparable to all the batsmen of the team. What else do you want from a batsman? Who cares how his batting looks? At the end of the day, its the runs that matter. Regarding his captaincy, we have not yet lost any test match under him. So, you cannot criticise him. he may be lucky, I agree, but his captaincy is also at par with all the greats.

Its immaterial how Dhoni bats as long as he scores runs..Dong forget he is at No.1 in ODIs for quite a long time.Even in tests he is batting quite well..
dhoni to b blamed ind cud hv declared in the 4th day morning at overnight score n cud hv utilised early moisture in the pitch for our pacers to get some help. inspite of a lead of 531 runs, if u cant declare then either u r having lack of confidence in ur bolrs or u dont deserve to win a test match. dhoni has to take all the blame for the 3rd test shame.

What would have happened if no rains occurred in day 5? Also, only 2 of our front line bowlers were in form. He needed to take account of this too.

Yes indeed... The rain forecast on 5th day was known on the 3rd day itself. So India doesn't have to blame the rain for not winning the match today. They could have declared earlier & would have had more time to bowl out NZ

maharaj ravi, dhoni aur not god that he know that rain will come or not. if rain will not come and india set a target around 520 with 2 day left then there is chance for newzeland to score these run in two days, i think dhoni and comapny take a grate move to take lad around 600
yes it was disappointing, never the less india shown its supremecy and even newzlenders knew that it was lucky escape.india made its point that they are on way to no. 1

It's easy to do post mortem! How many times these rain forcasts have fructified? Whatever be the result, at least team India is on the track! We can atleast put up tough competition to any team under the sky

wel said prakash. you can not please all their will be allways critisism inspite of dhoni who won fair and square both one day and test series. newziland is also a international team and we can not rule out thr taylor inning and his partnership with franklin.
