1) Viru 2) Gautam 3) Rahul 4) Sachin 5) Laxman (c) 6) Raina 7) Dhoni (wk & wc) 8) Amit 9) Praveen 10)Shri 11)Ishant Dhoni wc just becoz to help him out from the captaincy pressure and to free his arms while batting.
Akram the sychophant knows very well ... how to retain his Indian media contracts.. ,he would sell his family for a few more contracts with Indian channels.
Oh Akram please remind us how Sachin Tendulkar is the greatest athlete in the history of human kind on the planet earth in the solar system, is the pressure from Ravi Shahstri and Sunil Gavaskar working your colleague Ramiz Raja is already cracking under pressure from those two .
Then we will win..he creates a negative impact with his slow batting...never mind he scored centuries...because of his slow batting, other people played rash shots and got out...better drop him for ever
He is the only captain to have won us the world cup 50 over and 20 over and that too not by fluke as in 1983 but leading personaly with a magnificent 90 in the final after sehwag and sachin departed cheaply chasing 275 against a formidable lankan side....the pressure doesnt get any bigger than that stage....Give him respect guys...he is human...has been a consistent captain,player and match winner...wat else u need....damn his keeping....everyone makes mistakes he is human too....will retire as our greatest and toughest cricketer....!!

Dhoni as a batsman Test Avg over all 37.0, Test avg overseas 28.0, No overseas century or match winning inning in test carrer even after playing 59 test. T-20 intnl avg- 25, Strike rate- 109, No fifty or match winning inning in entirer career even after playing 26 matches ODI- Good avg manipulated due to no. of not out innings & manipulative batting position. Even in ODI most runs scored on flat indian wicket against team like Pak/SLK & no overseas century. As a wicketkeeper- Dropped catches in almost every match.
Dhoni test average outside In WI 2006, 24 In SA 2006, 26 In AUS 2007, 17.62 In SA 2011, 35.8 ( one inning of 90 when styen/morkel was kept out of attack for 2-3 hrs) In WI 2011- 19.5 ( score of 0,16,2, 5 & 74(only one good inning when WI was operating with bowlers like bishoo/chandrapaul & front line bowler rampaul/shammi etc was resting due to injury). In Eng 2011- 12.0 (present series) Also dhoni after playing 26 T-20 intl has not scored a single fifty, no match winning inning, no MOM & pathetic strike rate of 110 (one of the lowest for any batsman in T-20 at his batting position)
