Dhoni is responsible for defeat.
1.He made 11 off 23 balls 2.He missed a run out at crucial stage
India made a defendable score and match was in India pocket till 10th over. But Bravo was too good for India. It was Bravo's day. India bowled well and fielding was also good but it was not enough to stop Bravo.
My doubt about top order collapse has become true. We are playing with 6-5 combination in which one is Y.Pathan(Pinch hitter). Good start is necessary to India for a good total rather than quick start. Dhoni made a mistake by coming down the order in pressure of media. He should come at 3. If India will score 70 to 75 runs in 1st 10 overs with 8-9 wickets in hand then they can reach 160 plus easily because of hitters like Raina, Yuvraj, Pathan brothers in lower order. Dhoni is waste in slog overs. In next match he should come at 3 or if he comes at 7 then I.Pathan should come at 3.

Dont use Football like terms in Cricket. That '6-5 combination' is totally a foolish term to be repeated.

If you see any abusive message from my id check his number of messages. My messages are above 7000.
Ishant sharma is not in form and all the matches he had given a lot of runs without taking any wicket. It is better to play either RP singh or Praveen or including one more batsmen. Surprisigly the guy(Rohit) with golden arm (IPL) never been given a chance to bowl in this tournament.
windies shud play sensibly as they did yesterday ... i wil b happy 2 c a team like windies to lift t-20 world cup ...... its a lesson for australia and india ....... too much hype and wastage of money on indian players
He is absolutely selfish person. He thinks more for him than the team. Against weak teams, he comes to bat whenever he feel to so that he can score some runs to improve his record. He comes even one down or two down. Instead of sending Raina or Yuvraj or Rohit (when Sehwag was opening) to improve the run rate, he choses himself. And he really is not a very good fast scorer. He is not able to hit sixes like Raina, Yuvi etc. He is absolutely selfish player. Luck has been with him and hence we all have ignored his darker side.
THERE is no worth tp watch the tournament when sehwag is not around there. india was winning the matches solid opening from sehwag & gambhir. wheneveer they failed india lost the matches.
Look @ my post 'Dhobi only plays for his sponsor, not TEAM' currently message no 6. I had predicted that if a wicket fell early, Dhobi wont come @ no. 3 Coward!! Post match he says I & Yuvraj tried to turn things around REALLY?? 11 runs in 23 balls is a turn-around ?? In which direction ?
Then he dropped Lendl Simmons & then missed an easy chance to run-out BRAVO!! (Yes, the man that then hit 3 sixes & 4 fours) Yet its the top-order that failed.
