Dhoni's batting in South Africa was pathetic to say the least. I know that the World Cup is being held in India and that will come as a great relief to batsmen such as Raina and Dhoni who were at sea in the South African conditions. It is very surprising to know that there has been no criticism of Dhoni's performances with the bat. He did not play a single match-winning knock, except for the 90 which was in a losing cause. As a captain, you should lead from the front and Dhoni surely needs to pull up his socks.

Dhoni's presence as a skipper is more then enough........Every run he scores is a bonus..he Can be there in teh team only as a Captain.... He may not be responsible to building the team what Ganguly did ..but he can take some cricketing decision in teh ground which clicks most of teh time...

I would like to say here that team is balanced utmost but the how the boys can face the opponents, the on time performance if meaningful not timely performance

there is no allrounder like flintoff/watson/symonds/kallis/Jayasurya/Kapil Dev/Robin Singh/abdul razzaq/Imran khan/Angelo Mathews who can turn the match around. i feel like ifran pathan is missing. this squad is not complete
