India missed Sehwag badly. India couldn't take advantage of powerplay in any match. We will also miss him in test matches but in ODI Sachin can replace him easily.

Re: Now Srong contender for T-20
by Anurag Rathore on Jun 16, 2009 12:11 PM
RSA(most balanced side) has best chance. It's T-20 anything can happen at knockout stage. Srilanka just survived against IRL. Aus, Ban exit in first round. NZ survived against Scotland. So we can't predict in T-20. One bad day and team out.
No team ever won all matches and histyr of our team until Wadekar was dismal . Dhoni can take it easy.Lets inspire them if they have lost for the futre.
Dhoni took some bad decisions lead to the defeat of the team as whole.
Now he is over confident than over cautious, as a captain he has already proved his ability now he need goahead with the bad as this is not Test or 50 over match to go for a single.
He should learn from Anil Kumble how he is rotating the bowler and why he has used Ishant than Zahir is basic question.
In IPL also we already seen Jadeja is not a big hitter of sixes and fours but will retain the wicket and take single, but he has been promoted the order when India needs 11 RPO is million dollar question.
Because of over confident and over rated strength Team India losses this tournament and Team having Lesser strength than India is now going to Semis.
Re: ghosyy's prediction was right abt our team

It was necessary to test his character in tough condition. Let see what he do in series against WI? I am still confident about him.
Ever since he became the Captain, he think he is shouldering all the responsibility. Unfortunately, his batting has taken the beating. He is always tentative. The only saving grace is his running between the wickets. But for this he would have hardly crossed 10. He is not having a copy book style and is not technically sound, that is why he is having all the problems. Nobody can match Rahul Dravid's adaptability to different conditions of pitches and different formats of game. Time Passes but Quality Stays.

Don't compare Dhoni with Dravid. Capability of captaincy in Dhoni is much more than Dravid.

Yeah Dhoni has more capability of swinging bat than Dravid, so when the bat swings he will hit his own a$$ !!! hahaha .... Dravid is technically sound batsman

Oh yeah! Lets see. You cant gloat on past acheivements. If Dhoni cannot bring about a turnaround in India's fortunes, he will be in the same boat as Dravid. The only difference - Dravid hit his rough patch only towards the last phase of his career (unlike Dhoni).
