BCCI is again making a blunder with sticking to Dhoni as captain ..... India cannot win till the time this arrogant person is the captain...... Why can't BCCI take strong decisions??? Just like Pawar and co. Indian team ka bhala ho!!!

Bowlers can not be blamed in the 19 th and 20 th overs since batsmen are in a hitting mood.Many good bowlers have suffered while bowling death overs.

yes, vinay kumar while playing his first international match gave away only a single in his first over and three runs in his next over. he shud be sacked ahead of ravindra jadeja who gave 19 runs consistently in every over he bowled.

Moron, India was out of the tournament in the beginning of the over itself. The end result was inconsequential
Why did Dhoni replace Yuvraj with Pathan who gave away 18 runs

Experience nehra is 1000 times more responsible than vinay kumar playing 1st match
Dhoni was successful bcos he drove the culture of performance in the indian team. He made, seniors and new comers alike, perform at their level best, because that was the only criteria to stay in the team ... all that seems to be changing
While blasting seniors at the protectionism offered to them based on their laurels, Dhoni is creating his own team of "preferred" people who do not need to perform to stay in the team. Dhoni likes Jadeja (even when he is single handedly responsible for indian loss in 4 out of the 6 games in last 2 T20 wcups), hates utthappa, likes raina, yuvraj, hates sachin (i am still not convinced that Dhoni wanted Sachin to complete his 200 in ODI) ..... Dhoni came to the apex by supporting performance and performers .... he needs to retain that. Its his USP... he is loosing fast by retaining his favorites

sack useless & political dhobi. Any washerman will wash cloth better than him of indian cricket
ARE WE ALL BECOMING MAD TOWARDS CREATING AN ATMOSPHERE EVEN TO THE EXTENT OF SACKING OF DHONI IN THE LIGHT OF INDIA's POOR SHOW AT THE T-20 WC ?? WHETHER ONLY DHONI PLAYS FOR INDIA OR THE WHOLE OF 11 PLYERS HAVE TO PLAY WELL TOGETHER FOR THE COUNTRY ?? COME TO THE CORE ISSUE. MOST OF THE PLYERS WERE UNFIT. SEE THE COACH's REPORT GIVEN A FEW DAYS AGO. 5-6 PLAYERS HAVE HIDED THEIR INJURIES TO BCCI BEFORE SELECTION. THEY WERE TOTALLY AN UNFIT LOT. SELECTORS HAVE SELECTED WRONGLY THE TEAM. THESE 5-6 PLAYERS HAVE CONTINUOUSLY PLAYING WORSE, BUT THEY ARE BEING SELECTED AGAIN AND AGAIN. THE RESULT IS INFRONT OF YOU. SEE THEIR FIELDING AND BOWLING !! IT IS PITIFUL. THEIR BATTING STRENGTH WAS ALSO BADLY DAMAGED BY SHOT-PITCHED BALLS. SO, IT IS NOT DHONI, BUT THOSE 5-6 PLAYERS AND THE SELECTORS MUST BE BLAMED FOR THE TEAM's POOR SHOW.

dont blame selectors. As for dhobi- it is the best possible 16 palyers avialable in country for T20. He told in press conference. It maens entire team was selcted based on his recomendation- no wonder all his friends from north gambhir, raina, yuvi, nehra, praveen,bhajji, dhongi,chawla, pathan etc in team.
Advt. companies already paid Dhoni through nose,,, Cricket shows by renowned ex cricketers are just paid dramas,,See the result even after not winning a single match in super league,, because players used to get drunk previous night of the matches and Dhoni did nothing just arrogantoly defending his favourates,,persons who are part of this mafia,, Gavasker, Ravi Shastri, Akram are defending him,, 'we will go five years back' ,,, dear we were better off five years back,,,Dhoni should be out not due to bad form,, but due to unprofessional handling of team,,, that is unforgiveable, not being out of form
Dhoni should go.MAke shewag or gambhir the captain. Dhoni is a great player but tends to get complacent. Not saying that gambhir or shewag will make better captains but a single person should not be allowed to be captain of all the 3 formats. It makes him think like a DON and not as professional. 20-20 is such a game that No captain can be consistent. Run the system as corporate have 3 different CEOS for 3 different FOrmats. this way the players and captains will not be complacent

He is a smart captain, with exceptional capability when needed at-times. The whole team is to be blamed for poor show. Captain can't do anything if batsman cannot play short-pitch bowling well.
Re: Re: HE SHOULD GO
by ASHISH KUMAR on May 15, 2010 07:05 PM
then why he was given so much of credit when India was winning. At that time aslo all credit should have gone to greats sachin, dravid, laxman, kumble, sehwag etc & not to captaincy of useless dhongi
Re: Re: HE SHOULD GO
by ASHISH KUMAR on May 15, 2010 07:47 PM
he himself can't play short pitch ball. Also he wants player like yuvi, gambhir, jadeja etc in team beacuse they are friends.

Another political dhobi fan -Mr rathore who never accept the facts. 1. WI team is a waek team & we won series helped by rain. 2.We won traingular series in SLK- beacuse sachin scored back to back century in S/F & final. 3.We levelled test against SA on mine field. 4.We won 1st & 2nd oDI against SA as sehwag fired in 1st^& sacin scored double century in 2nd. When both rested in 3rd ODI- dhobi team was thrashed by SA team. Also when both dravid/laxman injured in 1st test- india was thrashed by SA. All ur facts are misleading & false. Fact remains without sachin/sehwag we have never won a major tournamnent in ODI/T20. Same way we have not won a single test against quality team if all greats sachin, sehwag, dravid, laxman not played together. Mr rathore be honest first. Dhobi is simply a regional, overhyped, political player not capable to play against quality bowling if pitch is not flat.
