Did you all notice that Dhoni did not run for a few shots and made Yuvraj score 50. Even, Yuvraj was adamant to get 50 and did not run for a few shots. No other country in the world will do such things.

I agree with your point Mr Sankar, as it is not the Main point to get Yuvi his 50 but the main thing is that as earlier as they complete there run chase they will get good average which at present is very bad for indians. Even though I think all other teams have better average other than india.

50s in world cup are as important as Wins. After the match you go for your work next day. But player need to survive in the industry and 50s are milestones

YOu guys need to stop idol worshipping and learn the rules of the world cup. The world cup rankings gets decided on the basis of run rate if the points are equal. So it is VERY VERY important to finish a match in as few balls as possible.
Personal milestones are not as important. You will realize only when INdia gets pushed out because of the run rate.
Every run, every wicket counts. Ex...we saw what happened due to Ian Bell decision with england. This is serious stuff, world cup.
Mess up the batting order - selection and blame the bowlers or batsmen or feiding .This is not right attitude for a team wanting to win the WC.The process reminds me Greg Chappel era of Indian Cricket .
It takes 30 balls for him to score just 9 runs that too against Netherlands. He has no moral right to say Indians have to improve batting. Being the leader he should set an example

u r right.This 100% luck is there for Dhoni. Mind you that Dhoni should rely on team performance rather hanging on luck. Every day is not a sunday. Even selecting Chawla is "Selection fixing"
First of all stop seeing other teams as underdogs. Everyone knows how we won against Netherlands. It started with a big bang around the ground but at one stage close to lose the game. When will you learn to play, Dhoni and the team?

We still celebrate the 1983 world cup winning year after year Does it not sound funny when we celebrate the same in 2083.
