Dhoni chose to lament at the end of the first test that buit for the umpiring decisions India would have won much earlier and everyone lapped it up. On the last day of the 3rd Test we had to take only 4 wickets and once the Windies were all out we had a very reasonable chase to make but our players opted for the draw!

also dhoni kept mum when total 5 umpiring decision went against WI team in 2nd & 3rd test which changed the outcome of series
i think this old man will bring down indian cricket and we will start seeing the downfall of hyped-up dhoni! we may soon see gambhir leading indian team... (gambhir gave us clean sweeps when he captained. that is the mark of a No.1 team)

Gambhir is not a patch on ability of Dhoni.It seems thata typical English mindset has influenced a usually aggressive Dhoni to opt for a draw.We r in trouble with this defeatist mind set in England where a far more aggressive competitor is rearing to take on the number one team.

In any other country player with dhoni ability could have been kicked out of test team long back. It hapepens only in india where dhoni can continue in test- courtsey media, add contract & politics

its not the coach....its the team not having the desire to win....9 times out of 10 Australia would have won from that situation

Doing comment from drawing room is very easy..... 150 in 50 overs could be a easy task but over 4 runs per over never be a easy task on 5th day...

yeah sure. A half strength aussie team would have done the same. If you have some facts to back up a fantasy claim, pl do so.
