Sadly, Dhoni's Visa Power did not work. However, he never misses a single ball in TV commercials and cleanly hits them out of the ground. He is talented in TV commercials. Even that is important you know. Atleast more important than showing up in Rashtrapati Bhavan to receive the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna. Tell me how many cricketers are so committed to their strokeplay, as to choose 'Fake Sixes' for Pepsi and Visa power TV ads, over receiving a National award from the President. Therefore dont criticize Dhoni over a lack of commitment.
Next, Dhoni's commitment to build and groom a great Team North India shows long term vision. It reflects the North Indian patriotism that was evident in several online discussion forums as recently as 4 days ago, when pehelwan northies were commenting that since uttar bhartiya ppl were full of 'physical power' they only should be in team India and they will return with the World cup. Every since I read those comments about imaginary north Indian stamina, I have been sleeping peacefully having patriotic wet dreams about a glorious Team North India returning with the world cup!
Unfortunately, my wet dreams got interrupted today, when I accidentally switched on the TV while eating full plate of idli and vada sambar. I was so shocked at Team North India's performance that the steaming sambar spilled out, and the idlis and vadas went flying from my mouth.
Now I dont have rasam to drown my sorrows. Still I will cheer for bha iyya Team North India.
It was under dhoni captaincy dat india won the previous T20 World cup.So hav faith on Dhoni,surely he will win this time also world cup for India n will make us proud.Dhoni is d best captain v hav right now.

The bhai yya northies were all over these boards last week screaming why south indians should be kept out of the team because these bhai yya northies have lot of "physical power". (Last time I checked history, every single foreign invader plundered these bhai yyas and tookover their lands and enslaved the northies - yet they keep having wet dreams about their 'martial qualities' LOL. Rajendra Chola from the South invaded foreign lands but bhai yyas would rather glorify the Moghu l invaders that enslaved them instead of the south indian warriors, but thats another story for another day.)
So the entire world saw the strength and 'fighting spirit' of bhai yya northies. Did you see the 'fighter' Harbhajan (Mr. Turbanator) giving away 4s in wides in crunch situations.
Did you watch the great 'physical power' of bhai yya northy studs Jadeja, Rohit Sharma and Dhoni?
The other reason these northies were screaming in the discussion boards why south indian players should be kept away is because "South Indians dont look good". I must grant the northie bhai yyas that much... bhai yyas like 'Ishant Sharma' are really 'model material'. These bhai yyas are team NORTH INDIA's answer to Pakistani greats like Imran Khan & Wasim Akram in the talent, stamina and looks department!!!
No wonder why bhai yya bowlers like Ishant Sharma are idolized by North Indian media as the next 'Glen McGrath'.
Keep on dreaming. Atleast that doesnt cost anything.
use more bowlers.use yuvi, rohit, raina to fill in. if they take wicket in 1st over give them one more... change bowler after every non-wicket over.this helps much to unsettle batsmen.
The Dua of Ishant sharma and Irfan pathan should have been replaced by RP Singh and Praveen Kumar ,as they have more variations. As it happened , Ishant and Irfan pathan got clobbered allover the place by the windies , as Ishant Irfan bowled a predicatable line as always .
This Indian team cannot win any more matches as they do not have the super star Sehwag. This 2nd world cup title will either go to West Indies, Sri Lanka or South Africa. Indian team does not stand a chance. They have a pathetic bowling line up and poor batting line up.

Indian team without old players like sachin/sehwag/kumble can't perform on sustained basis. Its same as australian team without gilly/hyden/symonds/warne. Luck of dhobi will not take u too far. Though we have few match winners like rohit/yuvi/yusuf etc who can win the match on their day.
