I would like to meet the author of this article and the editor who approved this piece of trash. journalism always has been distasteful in india and so have been its practitioners.
rediff, the reason you have attributed for dhoni's typical response is bullsh#t. it is not due to excessive cricket but due to stupidity on part of you journos.

Absolutely, these guys could not find any sensational news from Dhoni's pres conf, (like how media got enough food from sehwag's ordinary bangladesh team comment) hence they have come out with such a bsh.it article.

what youngsters on trial? abhishek nayar, one of the newest guys scored a century the other day against this team. so i won't be surprised if rohit or badri or murli scored more than seasoned guys like sachin, gambhir or sehwag. or

Have u seen who bowled the max number of overs from SA,spinners & part time bowlers.Their premier fast bowlers Dale Steyn & Morne Morkel bowled just 8-10 overs.Under those circumstances,scoring a hundred is not an acheivement.

For the first time i feel rediff has done correctly by just highlighting in brief the pre match conference thus wasting little of all our time.job well done and good posting

What other options we have exdept perhaps Laxman replacing either Badri or Vijay.Two spinners very important which I agree with you.

Yes, all in predictable lines. But, fail to understand how Yuvraj's absence is going to deplete indian batting in tests. He was never dependable for longer plays.

ur right. It's a blessing in disguise that he isnt playing the test . he doesnt possess the technique to play 2 or 3 steyn or morkel deliveries. Murali Vijay or Badri would be better. Also a good performance by them will esnure that Yuvraj doenst take his place for certain. Rohit could also get a look in..

Sehwag gave one unpredictable answer like Bangladesh is an ordinary test side and he was crucified by you media. Why should Dhoni give the media material to shoot him? He will stick with tried and tested answers :-)
