Let him playi in 6th/7th down role. If Kholi fails again, pls bring Raina in his place. If kholi cant keep his wicket against mennows how can he score against Ausies/Sri lankans/South Africans?

yusuf can bat only under pressure, when required run rate is more than 8.00. so he shud come down the order, Kohli was in bit Hurry today as the other top order batsmen, soon he hit 2 fours he though he can go after the bowler, he cud have been little patient watching the ball coming in, but he is good player, whom we needed in the top order, especially when we loose early wickets,
with Piyush chawla's below average performance, they still can accomodate raina with so many 6 spinners in team including him (bajji,yuvi,pathan,shewag,tendulakar,raina). Kohli can bowl some medium pace too, india can bat down till 8 then,
dhoni is gambling with sticking to piyush chawla here, Chawla is a mediocre spinner, i think even raina can bowl better than chawla, chawla's all wickets have come against minnows not against strong sides, he is very expensive, he will be exposed more when they play better teams in next round, they will target him definitely. ashwin is better choice out of available players, they can also go with raina who comes with extra batting, or another seamer M.patel becuze of the fact that we have many part time spinners Yuvi,pathan,shewag,tendulkar.
Selfish dhobi as usual trying to play not out inning to maintain his average & help his friend yuvi to score half century. God sachin never does it for even 100 but these average players are so desperate for records. Politician dhobi is least bothered about team. His only intention is to maintain his average, help his friends, retain captaincy & his advt contract. What a cunning & manipulative captain he is? Dhobi played 3 maiden overs. Now shameless dhobighaat supporter like mental Sunil vaidya, sanjay, ramjiraman etc must be hiding in toilet if they have any sharam. These fanatic & political minded fans were shouting against sachin when he played one maiden over against even though he scored 120 runs out of 115 balls. If Indian cricket to be improved, this politician dhobi must be kicked out immediately.

@ASHIS, do you think the batsman after Dhoni will good in chasing targets? Dhoni did excellent job as a captain. At this time defence is better than offence.

i think u just saw the last score board, had u watched the game LIVE u wudn't have said this, RUN RATE was never a problem here, we were 99 for 4-wickets in 15 overs i.e 91 needed from 35 overs,
then 139-for 5-wickets in 23 overs i.e. 51 needed from 27 overs.
so when he came WICKET was important not run rate, another 2 wickets at around 150 wud have made Dutch come back to game and win. abt yuvraj's 50, he deserved it...

Was they were batting against strong bowling attack? if yes, I understand your point and fully agree with. Otherwise you are defending a thief by all means.
