CAPTAIN!!!

Captaincy makes a huge difference....Remember last but one home test series against Australia? Two tests captained by Kumble were drawn and the two by Dhoni were won......with the SAME team.

Credit to Dhoni
by Sanjeev Pandey on Dec 30, 2010 04:32 PM

when india got mini world cup under his captaincy without sachin , saurav, dravid, laxman etc.. it was called pure luck, now it is called due to all above player.He is now 2nd best captain india ever have after saurav, he has a best record as wicket keeper batsman, he is performing as good wicket keeper also. Why anybody is feeling problem in giving credit to him what he desrves

You Should not forget the Contribution of THE BENGAL TIGER SAURAV GANGULY.....to any wins by India....He is the one who has taught Team India how to be aggressive and how to play to their own Potential especially Overseas.....Can anyone still forget the test series in Australia....It all started since then....After that We have won In Windies and England and New Zealand....And the 3 great men named above have put in their all to make this team so great.....

Ganguly taught only idiotic things like sledging, corruption with in team members, taking off his shirt and waving it around....a total mentally retarded fellow.

he never taught never give up spirit and winning habit which Dhoni did

Sachin and Sourav are 2 sides of same coin, same sort of idiots, only playing for themselves and living for money & publicity lol

Dear Rooney, I think you have a valid point but this is not the way to say it. Sachin and Saurav are guilty to some extent of playing more for themselves than for the country but it is also true that they have played some memorable match winning innings

Team India a fluke team
by Michael DSa on Dec 30, 2010 04:29 PM  | Hide replies

India has reached no. 1 spot my mere fluke.....just like the 20/20 WC and just like the 1983 WC......every time winning by fluke. Till date there has been no team like the Australians....once they keep going they will bulldoz any team with conviction.

it is always hard to accept fact. Does any team have the ability to win 3 WC at a stretch ??? Speak up boys..Indians want to be happy in transit....before reaching final destination.

Averages
by ajaaxz on Dec 30, 2010 04:22 PM

Watching a lot of talks about averages here,

Any player playing at 5 or 6 tends to have a lesser average coz he has to play with the tail mostly & save the strike mostly,

Openers also has to face the wrath of pitch as well as new ball,

Contribution in second innings is double to that in the 1st inning

Hence i would always rate VVS, Sehwag & Dhoni as per their current averages much better players than Sachin in tests
