I agree with Dhoni . Win or lose , we should support team India . Even if they show up arrogantly lacking match practice . Itt would be better if Dhoni concentrates on cricket rather than focusiing on his wife's charity..or more importantly shooting for ads mocking his team. All that matters to Dhoni si his ad money and ensuring that he delivers for Chennai Superkings . The arrogance and attitude of this man reminds one of Azhar in his heydays , and is a sign of his downfall.
India team is paper tigers..The fact is they can not play on Green top fast wickets...in England..In Australia...In west indies....In New zeland...They can roar only on subcontinent wickets...Running only after money......
He is probably the most thick skinned captain who refuses to even acknowledge the shortcomings in his team.The performance of number one team has left nation humiliated & yet he continues to be proud of his team mates for cause best known to him only.
Mr.Lucky Dhoni saab, we are not critical on loss but the way we lost needs to be critized. There is heck of difference in loosing like warriors instead of loosing like pacifist by loosing cheaply with huge margins,no fight etc.
I feel, the world cricketing teams were struggling for 1 or 2 years, which helped India gain the No.1 status. Otherwise, there is no good reason how India gained it. I also feel, with the kind of politics in cricket, India would hardly make it there again any time in the future.

Divakar that is usually the reason for any team to be no. 1 otherwise every team will be no. 1. because world cricketing teams were struggling for 1 0r 2 years india became no. 1. similar is the case with england. they are going to be no. 1 team only as long as world cricketing teams are struggling. otherwise it is a bullshit team.
the WI and aussie teams under lloyd waugh and ponting were ordinary. it was only their luck that at that time the world's other cricketing teams were going through a bad phase because of which these useless wi and aus team became no. 1. it was just a case of andhon mein kaana shaana...

West Indies and Aus remained on top for more than a decade, not just for 1-2 years
DhobiReminds me of ourCentralGovt- he speaks the same language. When he succeeds, everyone should touch his feet, but when he fails, none should point aFinger- signs of anInsecureLoser are clear in him

DuncanFletcher's comment "despite losses, theYoungsters are putting in good performances" is a clearlyScripted one. YoungNorthieGuns are unable to find time to practise for a test match in the midst of their tight schedule of AdShoots, IPLMatches, IPLPostMatchParties andWomanizing. All these YoungNortieGuns are focussed on is increasing theirIPLValuation. Hence the desire to hit over the top and get out all the time.
