Its really ugly to see all useless, waste people talking about Dhoni. He won T20 WC, Asia cup after 16 years, IPL, Champions League, Home test Austraila series without losing to them ( 2-0 Margin was biggest against Aussie team). What else you want this as a captain. You idiots, stop talking about Dhoni. He had also won so many ODI Tournaments. Even if Sachin, Rahul, VVS retires from Tests, he will defenitely shine with Pujara, Raina and Vijay Stop commenting about Dhoni you all useless Idiots

Dhoni Test Captaincy records before start of the 1st test match vs Australia...
He played 17 tests so far as a captain....
11 WIN , 4 DRAW , 2 LOSE..
He took captaincy from Anil Kumble in 2008..and from then he never lost a series till date..
India is No.1 in Tests from 2009 series vs Srilanka..So India is No1 in tests from last one yr..
One interresting fact that last series vs Australia in 2008 India played 4 tests ...2 under Kumble captaincy and 2 under dhoni's captaincy but both the wins came under Dhoni's captaincy..
As a batsmen he lost his batting form but as a tests captain he is the best till date..

rajib sen, when you say dhoni has lost his batting form, what exactly do you mean?
BTW dhoni has captained india 16 times in tests with 10 wins.

First Mr Sunil how r u???
I mean that the way Dhoni started his carrier briliantly..for sometime he is not in his best of form..and I post this comment against some anti Dhoni fan...Thats why i wrote in my coloumn that as a batsmen he is out of form now but as a captain he is the best...and i am also a gr8 fan of Dhoni...
In this post lots of people are said drop Dhoni..he is not deserve a place in the team then i wrote this.. I guess in my post u get my motive against anti Dhoni fans..
But Dhoni has captained India in 17 times and 11 wins..
I guess u frgt 2008 series vs SA where he captained team India for the 1st time due to absence of Team Inmdia regular captain Anil Kumble..and 1st match as a captain he won the match... i guess u missed that one..

rajib sen, i am fine, thank you. but for your information dhoni has not lost his form. in fact for the past two years he has batted magnificently and as a captain he has batted at a 50 plus average, both in tests and in odis. In fact rajib sen his batting performance when he is captain is better than his batting performance when he is not captain. In fact dhoni must be one of the very few (if indeed there are any) players in the world whose performance as a captain is better than his performance when not a captain. all other captains i know have performed a shade less when he is captain than when he is not becuase of the added captaincy responisbilities.
i havent forgotten his 2008 series vs SA debut. but he has indeed captained india side 16 times before the current test. perhaps you counted one match against Bangladesh as under his captaincy when actually it was sehwag who was captain. dhoni returned for the 2nd test to lead india to another test win.
