Is it not rather strange that Dhoni is firmly perched at the top but the media, electroic as well as print, keeps singing VIRUDAWALI (songs of praise) for Sachin, Sahwag, Gambhir and Yuvraj. No one is seen to talikng about Dhoni. Can any one explain why? May be they think his greatness axiomatic.
Their is birth which accepted by everyone and their is daeth which refused by everyone this is universal truth and middle part of is hardworking along with depend upon how much blessing collecting from GOD indirectly we say Luck..........THIS IS LIFE.....And Planet or Astrology are just like MENTAL PLEASURE or Time Pass..........NOTHING MORE.........

I'd rather be happy with none of the Indian players in top 10 or 20, but the team is winning on a consistent basis. Go Team India!!
Cricket in sports is in a way similar to IT sector in the industry - both doing well in the recent past compared to more traditional sports (Hockey)- Core industries which has their glory over a longer period. BCCI honoring few sportmen from other discipline is just a political act (only to few top performers who were well rewarded already anyways). BCCI and top cricketers from India who are the most cash rich around the world should really do share their experience, process, money and time to do real good to other sports in the country. This will get them more respect from our countrymen who are the real reason why cricket is cash rich in the first place due to massive ad revenues. Allocating 50% of annual profit of BCCI (in my opinion it belongs to us as Indians) to build and improve infra, training and ameneties for other sports will go a long way to do better in coming Olympics / World meets etc..
Have always been, and will probably will always remain so. India is fortunate enough to find such a daring and wonderful captain. I'm proud of him.
The only time I was a little upset over him was when he didn't go for a win in the 2nd Test against England recently and let Yuvraj and Gambhir continue playing. Other than that, I've always been impressed with him.
