As a die hard fan of Pure Cricket(Only sportsmanship)I would like to suggest the Indian Cricket Team management to prepare pitches which supports Bounce and develope our batsmen.Secondly because of this we can also have good pace bowlers like Bret lee,Johnson,malinga rather than always depend on Batsmen to win matches.We have good bowlers but not depend them to win matches in crunch situations like Mcgrath,Akram while we bowl second.And I do feel by heart that Dhoni is not a perfect captain (you can see his performance post his captainship,with keepings misjudgements).Rather we can go for Yuvraaj and Dhoni should assist him and Improve his keeping and play his natural game as he used to and which we all liked tooo.

Dhonis performance
by deepak kamat on Jun 16, 2009 05:45 PM

Dhoni is not a good keeper as well,he was merly judged for his hard hitting qualities which seems to disappear due to captiancy burden.He has lost his charm and needs to play his natural game.

Dravid should be selected for ODI. Don't blame Dhoni. It will happen in everyone life.

Tuff luck here, best of luck for future,
Well we always blame the person who is pushed into, the culprit will escape we should blame media (not all) not team or team members or captain. The false comments from media which paid Dhoni’s attention, which was the first priority at the movement, for the team which do not have time to recover and get prepare for the next game, for the country where cricket is not less than a war, upon that if so called responsible media makes news for the publicity which affected the nation pride.

Well played team NORTH INDIA bhai yyas

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, so what if we only get to watch it 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 from the President of India. 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 we must not 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 great 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 vada went flying from my mouth.

Did anyone saw during Ind Vs Eng match, last over india was almost sure of defeat, Suresh Raina was cracking jokes and was unable to control his laughter. Whole India was upset and this stupid was very happy.
