Clearly Dhoni is to be blamed for yesterday loss. he himself scored 12 runs from 23 balls. he needs to re think the following.
1. hee needs to come down the order, cause he is doing no good coming one down just wasting deliveries. seems he is trying to save his skin by wantig to score some runs but not successfull. 2. Ishant Sharma neede to be rested. just goes for runs. RP SINGH should be in his place.
INDIA has still chance to reach finals and win this cup only if we can do following 1) Replace Dhoni with D Kartik 2) Get in RP (in place of Irfan or Ishanth) 3) Zaheer should be out, he still doesn’t looks 100% fit, if any player is not fit he should be out as T20 demands very high fitness levels. 4) If Yusuf Phatan is unfit (he had shoulder injure yesterday) he should be out and Jedeja should be in
1. Dhoni having just under 100 strike rate in the 20-20, its not sufficient for any kind of cricketer coming on no.3 or no.4, 2. On the seaming pitches he took 2 specialist spinners( Harbhajan singh, Oza), we already have 3 part time spinners,( rohith sarma, yuvaraj,yousuf pathan), this is the stupid things he does, he would have taken another seamer 3. Ishanth sarma is a waste bowler in IPL, RP singh is the leading wicket taker, and Praveen kumar has the second leading wicket taker, he missed both of them, and took Ishanth sharma, 4. Harbhajan singh, he didin't take single wicket as of now in this 20-20, he is the waste bolwer, 5. we miised the Sehwag, some thing happend between Dhone and Sehwag, 6. we beat only the minnows, 7. yesterday match we lost,

Dhoni is a excellent captain , but yesterday he shud take the responsibility for the loss (11 runs in 23 balls) & a run out miss....It was ur bad day at office..but atleast admit it & dont start looking at excuses & other players to blame.........

If we would have won today he would have been smiling and stealing the credit for the hardwork of other team members and thats what happened most of the times in the past
against Bangladesh - 21 in 23 balls against WI - 11 in 23 balls against England - 5 in 23 balls against SA - 0 in 23 balls and miss simplest of runouts MC.BC. DHONI is Cancel to the INDIAN team

mate you don’t have to see a bat for a bad performance even a kid knows 11 in 23 is balls good or bad in 2020 :) chilll
I saw the match yesterday. Dhoni was really struggling even to take singles. first of all he never attempted any big shots. when he attempted he hit it straight to the fielder. He was always looking for singles only by nudging around but he cud never find the gaps. all he had to do was take singles and put yuvi on strike. Yuvi on the other end was striking the ball beautifully and if only yuvi had more strike off the 23 balls dhoni wasted, india cud have scored 20-30 runs and that wud have made the differnece. Yuvi was all class amd really awesome. Played shots in different parts of the ground. At one stage it looked india cud stilll get around 165-170 when yuvi was batting with yusuf. What a player. Dhoni shud by no means come in the top order. his batting has deteriorated and even the singles he takes are unconvincing and looks ugly. Captaincy however i thought dhoni did really well. Bhajji bowled a maiden to gayle and dhoni removed bhajji after that so that gayle doesnt get used to him and brought in YP who obliged with the wicket of Gayle. Dhoni rotated bowlers a lot so that WI dont get used to a bowler. GOod captaincy but poor batting by dhoni.But hats off to Bravo. gr8 innings. took the match away from india.
Yesterday we can able to see lack of confidence in batting, that will reflect in bowling and fielding, so please change the batting lineup and get confient, whatever score it is we can able to chase. or to put good total to defent.
