Can agree with one day but not tests. In tests even if you are a number 7, you can have better average. Another thing is that Dhoni cannot be considered as wicket keeper who can bat a bit. He cemented his place in Indian team as a batsman and became the captain . but now he is utter failure with bat and a lucky captain. What else need for Dhoni to be in team for another 10 years!!!

More than excellent, if he is a wicketkeeper, most successful captain in terms of successes team achieved under him. 1. WC T-20 2. WC ODI 3. Rank-1 Test 4. Rank-2 ODI what more you want...
I wonder why the media and TV news channels no longer concentrate on Dhoni’s failures both in batting as well as dropped catches. I wonder what the reason is for this deafening silence. Are they in the pay-rolls of these advertising agencies that have made Dhoni a demi-god? The same media which used to be a hound dog till the other day have repeatedly ignored and glossed over Dhoni’s dismal performances. But they have unfailingly heaped false praise on him when someone else in the team has performed and also created a useless ruckus when he was mistakenly given out of a no-ball as if his stay would have made a huge difference to the course of the match.

Bcoz, they know that Dhoni is not playing in the team as a specialist batsman.. He is in the teas as a wicket-keeper batsman, and no doubt he is a best wicket-keeper batsman India has produced ever... Bonus - He is the most successful captain of India in all circumstances...

As usual, Pakistani don't know anything rather than Match Fixing
the Indian media also does not talk about the string of Dhoni’s poor performances. In fact, they try to gloss over it by giving him credit for someone else’s performance or try to heap false praise on him by making some vague argument on his captaincy.
i have said this time and again...dhoni's position in the Indian team is on the strength of his recent endorsements and the millions that the media and corporates have invested in him to make him a brand...any neutral observer of the team would say that based on his performance he should have been out 3 years back...how else will you explain the media cacophony when dhodi was wrongly given out...as if it would have made a difference...and also watch the credit Dhoni gets undeservingly every time india wins,every time some other bowler or batsman performs exceptionally...the laurels ultimately rest on the so called captain "COOL(sic)" who had apparently made them perform even though his individual performance had been worse than club-level...notice how how his shortcoming and exceptionally poor performance of late everywhere - Tests, T290's have been selectively blanked out by the media and the commentators who are hand-in-glove with the advertisement agencies..for them the corporates are the bread and butter...the corporates have madeDShoni a demi-god..so any criticism of Dhoni is blasphemy..evrytthing, every bad decision that Dhoni has made as a captain, he has been ultra-defensive at best has been made to look like a master move by these commentators..Dhoni's captaincy is the biggest myth in the world of sports..in recent times, raina, gambhir and sehwag has also won matches as captain with teams that were far ordinary,we do not need a 10 m

we do not need a 10 man Indian team with a non-playing captain whose only purpose in staying in the team is to serve the vested interests of the corporate and advertising agencies...anyone can captain this team and perform just as well because of the individual briliance...indian public should see through this media hype and false propaganda
