Mmyopinion, you are right. Ravi Shastri was an ordinary cricketer who is now an ordinary and boring commentator. I feel he is one person who says what he is asked to say---he has been asked to project Dhoni as good captain and he tries every superlative to describe dhoni as captain, so pity of him that he is earning his bread just by licking Dhoni, which has been asked to do by agents/sponsors of Dhoni.
He should be kicked out of the commentary box. Bring Michael holding, Boycoot etc, who talk frank and give unbiased views.

I believe he is one of very few succesful commentators from India and the it proves with the fact that he is signed by sports channel(I think ESPN)

Santosh,
What do you mean by successful commentators? You are judge as successful on the basis of what you achieve in the profession. Do not judge on the basis of which company you work for. See what is happening in USA--so called successful people--at least by your definition-have screwed up US economy and along with the global economy.

Ravi Shastri is most sought after opinion in cricketing world. Greats like Tony greig, tony Cozier, Ritchie Benou, have lot of praise for Ravi Shastri as commentattor. He was Man of the series of B&H world series cup( Mini World Cup)
SRK is like brother of Dawood Ibrahim, he is having links with all underworld.
Dawood insisted SRK to get more Pakistani & Bangladeshi players in his IPL team. It was all game plan of SRK and Dawood to have more pakistani players in Indian Premier League.
There are reports from film industry that SRK is chchhakka (gay) as everyone knows his relationship with Karan Johar, he is not real father of his son and daughter. GUARI had them by Dawood Ibrahim. SRK purchased IPL team with help of Dawood Ibrahim. All his money is underworld money.
He started business in Dubai through Dawood's help. I think SRK will be kllled with Dawood only.
SRK was seen at 2 Sharjah matches with Dawood Ibrahim during his initial time. Get the CD's of all Sharjah matches in 90's you will get proof.
KKR team stinks just because of their owner SRK. Mithun or someone else should take it back from underworld linked guy SRK otherwise all the money earned by SRK will again go for noble cuase like 26/11 in India.

hmmmmmm..... you are right........
that's why so many pakistani & bangladeshis in team, shahrukh khan is playing trick with indians then. dawood is involved in ipl as well like he is involved in funding shahrukh khan movies
Can any body ask all the team holders that will they insure to fly back individual players of India to present in their respective constituency to cost there vote or they don’t feel necessary it.

....and what the hell it is going to help us if we vote? Every politician is a real crap! Whoever we choose will screw us later. Say if I'm not right!
Wat was parthiv doing in the team??? when vijay is there??? why the fick did dhoni send badri at no.7???? wat was ashwin doing in the match???? lol....2 questions to dhoni...why dont u show some confidence on ur players??? wat the fick were u trying to do y'day???
delhi dare devils ki jai ho watch a match it will be delhi dare devils vs mumbai indians sachin , jayasuriya , harbhajan , khan vs sehwag , mcgrath , gambhir , vettori good luck to both the teams
That is not bold/confident man but a chicken (Darpok)—Yesterday (against MI) he had enough time to cross over when his partner (I think it was Badrinath), but did not do so as not to face Latish Malinga), even commentators were surprised that he had lots of time to cross over but he just stood there.
That he is just an ordinary Batsman
That he is just an ordinary Captain
That he is not match winner—he had a perfect opportunity to win match today by his own big contribution, instead he did not even tried to win the game and gave up fight.
That India has been doing well recently because of Good opening pair and better bowling support not because of Dhoni .

Varun, you are also like Dhoni, just talking big but in fact a low-life creature who can not understand or do not want to believe what he is seeing on TV.
Give me your reasons why he did not cross over, or just shut you mouth.
God is kind and merciful. He gave us IPL so we need to watch stupid politicians and TV anchors. Next IPL should be organized outside India. Long live IPL.
