dhoni is not good in australia then replace him with another wk and we can see the diff..... but from my side dhoni is most important part of indian team
Sunil Vaidya would love to project Dhoni as the Indian Idol 2001~2099 :) For him, Dhoni is practical whereas the whole world is impractical, Dhoni is real whereas the whole world is unreal, anyone who criticizes Dhoni is a Sachin fan/fantard, Dhoni faces life with equanimity, rest all are losers.
Varun understands him very well, he understands Varun very well. Both of them understand Dhoni very well, so according to them rest all are losers/dumazz/funny/haters.
Our cricket expert Varun's latest analysis: Dhoni's lack of performance and runs is because he bats with the tail... ha ha... In fact Mr varun, the Indian tail starts with Dhoni!
It does not need great intelligence to know that Dhoni will be a failure in Australia South Africa where the ball speaks. His batting resembles cutting grass with a long knife and the fast and bouncy pitches will not allow him to score. He will be a Tiger in the Chennai pitch and similar ones. Let us stop expecting anything more. - Ananth

Thats true... its really pathetic to see him bat in test.. His position, the way he strikes the ball everything resembles no 11 batsmen in any team.. Even Walsh, Danny Morrison and Martin were better test batsmen than Dhoni! :-)

And its really amazing to see idiots like Gavaskar, Shashtri etc praising him and calling him a "dangerous" batsman in Tests.. When did we ever see him posing any danger to the opposition in tests? Especially in pitches that are not flat like the ones in the subcontinent?

I cant believe that and for that matter no one can...! If you are talking abt Sachin and talking that he is a flat pitch bully, you are born y'day! Did you watch this match at least?

He did quite well in SA and did poorly in england. But the funny part is sachin fared equally bad as well in england. Don't be fooled by style. What matters is the runs finally. But dhoni does have issues he needs to address in tests. But it had little to do with the myths you hold dear.

Yeah! Runs matter and the 73 runs he scored in the first innings were really through a classic, flawless innings.. Except for the ball that he got out, he was outstanding!
Even the cricket experts agree to that and the aussie media.. its just idiots like you who speak otherwise!
If not for the captain's spot he has no place in this Indian Test side..! He is extremely useless as a batsman.. Even the traditional Indian wicket keepers like Kirmani, More, Nayan Mongia etc who were more of wicket keepers than batsmen, used to score 30-35 runs in tests... Dhoni has been ordinary as a keeper and an absolute failure as a keeper... If India can find a good captain like him (who can make some smart decisions on the field and has some luck around him), we can comfortably see the back of Dhoni in Tests... Its really painful to see him bat in Test... Even Ashwin ishant and Umesh Yadav looks good while they bat!
If its the lack of form like what Gambhir or Kohli are suffering from, it can be corrected by extended sessions in the net.. But what to do when the man in question does not even have the class and technique?

I am sure Dhoni's son Sunil Vaidya will come around with an argument that Dhoni is better than Sachin.. ha ha.. but, the way Sachin batted in the first innings, he proved that what happened in England was a rare failure series from him, but Dhoni is continuing his flop show everywhere!

hehe. Sachins abject failure in england is still in your mind ? oh boy did that hurt. Well sachin is not the only one extended the convenience, is it ? :)

It hurt everyone.. Except for Dravid everyone in the Indian team had a disastrous outing in England!
its refreshing to see the same team faring well in Australia! But there is no change in the way your 'hero' is struggling! he he... Its okay.. the team will win with no contribution from him as usual!
Dhoni is atleast the most busy person on ground all the time in either team. Of course he need to put some runs as batsman for sure but Gambhir is the lucky one...Chk his record outside...Till 2011 he didnt perform great against great teams..in 2011 in SA he played well..he started his career as international player in 2004 and still he has loud mouth...He needs to perform this test, this series or else things don't look great for him...
Re: Re: Dhoni is brilliant behind the stumps... by Sunil Vaidya (View MyPage) on Dec 28, 2011 02:44 PM raj iyer, so go and check and compare dhoni record as a wicket keeper and batsman with those of sadanand vishwanath and kirmani both of whom you regard as better than dhoni....the results of the check will surprise and shock you...
exactly vaidya, u also go and check and compare SACHIN'S record as a batsman with all those batsman whom you regard as better than SACHIN....the results of the check will surprise and shock you...
even if u keep criticizing sachin, fact is ur logic itself proves that SACHIN is the best. vaidya, again proved wrong bt ur own logic. hehehe
