See dudes u have to understand that previously there where guys who always let the little master down,and that was the time when the team was called 1-man army.But now thats not the situation.Every one performs.Guys like Irfan patan r also capable of turning the tides.When we had Guys like Agarkar during the 1996 world cup when India lost to Srilanka,a statement aroused when one cricketer questioned cant the BCCI pick a efficient 11 from the billion populated nation.So guys like Gunguly should accept the little masters statement and should give credits to Dhoni's men..Jai Ho INDIA

dude for your information Agarkar was not part of Indian team in 1996 world cup.In fact he made his debut in 1998.

Sehwag creates a momentum at the top of the order and is such an aggressive player that he can take the game away quite quickly…..I can't explain it better. But we haven't found an answer to Sehwag and that is going to be the difference between the two sides..
Those are finest tributes to a batsman. Sehwag completed his century by a six for the audience used to � hour of agony when their hero gets stuck near century.
It is high time people should accept the fact. Dhoni bashing should stop at once. He is really doing wonderful and he deserved all kudos and support, from each and every cricketing loving INDIAN.

Yes right. I don't understand why some morons want Dhoni to be out. What is important, Dhoni scores 100 and India loses, or Dhoni scores zero in all the matches but still India wins? Second choice is desirable.
Some one reported the averages of all the major current players viz. Sahwag, Sachin, Gambhir, Yuvraj, Dhoni before and after Dhoni took up captaincy. There was a remarkable jump in the post Dhoni period. This is indeed a point to ponder.

It's not Dhoni it's the ZEE TV manager who invented ICL a free market for cricketers... But as always innovators in India are only recognized by Western countries..
After ZEE invented ICL then as usual the copy caterts invented IPL.. Once the place in the team was rewarded financial that's when a Dhoni was possible in the post socialist era of India....
Before ICL a country like Inda couldn't even score one bronze meddle or even win a world cup because of the Nehruvian Socialist mentality...
SO THE REAL HERO OF INDIAN CRICKET IS ZEE TV MANAGER AND GIVE CREDIT TO HIM COS HE CHANGED INDIA .

Dude there r many other facts...we dont see worldclass bowlers around just like there were many in 90's..Sehwag , yuraj Raina, Dhoni and Yusuf r good strikers but they r not of the quality of Dravid,Ganguly, Azhar, Laxman...i m saying in terms of there technique..But they r verygood in striking the ball.. But v knw average is counted on number of runs scored irrespective of strike rate..
It has to b judged on quality of attack..if u go by stats it will not give u the clear picture
DHONI HATES SACHIN, DRAVID. HE WANTS THEM TO BE OUT OF THE TEAM. BECAUSE HE KNOWS THIS TWO CAN SHINE AT ANY POINT OF TIME & DHONI MAY HAVE TO LOSE HIS CAPTAINCY

But DHONI sure is getting carried away.. by fame..
he is behaving like a KNOW ALL and being talking losely of Sachin and other senior players sometime back..don't you all remember his staements when Sachin was at a low a year back ( or so.. )..
BUT SACHIN came back and played such wonderful cricket that Dhoni had to eat his words and now he is more quiet..
He knows that he cannot touch Sachin so he is being intelligent enough not to say anything now..
