yes buddy, i was his biggest basher but that innings just changed everything. I have no shame in accepting he is india's best captain and i was a fool in criticizing him.
Re: Re: THE best there is ...
by Sanjay on May 18, 2011 04:46 PM
It's easily done brother - if he hadn't played that knock can you just imagine how much criticism he would have received?! I always beleived in him as you know... ok he isn't a great batsmen as when he first came on the scene but as long as India keep winning under him... I can accept that.
Re: Re: Re: THE best there is ...

I am not a politician like u sachin the great who keep changing the party with every result. I always believe Its Indian team who win the wcup & not one captain. Also even in this wcup sachin, zaheer, yuvi, gautam contribution was more than dhoni . sachin clicked in 4 out of 6 matches (excluding minnows), Gautam (3 out of 6), Yuvi (2 out of 6) & dhoni 1 out of 6. But few people talks dhoni won the world cup- what a ridiculous statemnet. Its Indian team who won the cup. I never haerd any one praising Spain football captain for victory but entire team is getting credit with some extra credit to highest goal scorer of tournament. STG- u need to open ur mind to understand these things

i'm agree with you my dear ashsh,but you should know without a good captain (either kapildeo or saurav or dhoni or ricky ponting) even there are some good player can't produce best result.it is only captain who guide every one and be with one every time to support
even though Dada should get the credit for making this team than won 2011 World Cup, Dada said Dhoni is India's greatest ever captain. Even Sachin sad it. Dhoni may have not been in form during world cup. BUT i can definately tell you he is a big match player, as shown in WC final against Sri Lanka. He was out of form for the whole tournament but come the big occassion the captain led from the front. If Sachin says he is the best captain to led india and to play under him. What is wrong with some people. I feel this people just keep bashing him for jeleousy. STOP HATING GUYS, DHONI won the world cup for us. I don't personally care how he does in future, all i know is he won the biggest world cup for us. That will be the proudest moment in my life that i got to witness to see india lifting world cup in my life time.
Re: Sachin and Dada
by ASHISH KUMAR on May 18, 2011 05:01 PM
It is not linked with dhoni form. it is his ability which never allows him to score consistently against quality bowling attcak. Once in 25 inning- any intnl player will perform if allowed to play
Re: Re: Sachin and Dada
by Varun on May 18, 2011 05:02 PM
You keep on missing all his innings under trying conditions. Actually after the SA test series, i would be surprised if someone said that. But with you, no wonder.
Re: Re: Re: Sachin and Dada
by ASHISH KUMAR on May 18, 2011 05:34 PM
In SA ODI series- he was failure in all 5 matches. In test series also except for one fifty he was failure in remaining 5 inning. anyway I was not expecting that he will score runs against like of Styen/morkel etc in SA during ODI series. All his runs in ODI on subcontinent pitches & against team like pak/slk/BNg etc. In India he scored against good team only when sachin/sehwag give good start & no presure o team. Varun don't mislead by general statement
Re: Re: Re: Re: Sachin and Dada
by Varun on May 18, 2011 05:50 PM
lol. Except kohli and ocassionally pathan nobody come take it forward in SA ODI series. Sachin was a huge disaster. In the test series he only failed in the last test. Watch it again. Dont eat up facts to justify your myths. All indian players inclusing tendu are bullies only in flat tracks. So when they go abroad, one needs to rate the innings based on conditions and unfamiliarity. And serisouly, i dont expect a fellow like you to understand this. You rate an opening bat and the one who bats lower order by centuries. Now what can be more foolish that that ?
Re: Sachin and Dada
by amit kumar on May 18, 2011 04:02 PM
Agreed but i will correct you at some points:- Dhoni didn't play a big inning but if you look at all the matches carefully, he was almost always critical in forging parterships which actually gave a much needed platform. These partnerships were useful and not waste.
Re: Sachin and Dada
by ASHISH KUMAR on May 18, 2011 04:20 PM
Most of dhoni fans are sachin bashers. Now it is very surprising that why they quote sachin statement to make dhoni great. sachin is waste for them but whem it comes to prove ordinary dhoni as great- always take words of sachin- Its a double standard hypocricy. It is a well known fact that sachin was over emotional after wcup victory & that type of statement was expected. Fact reamains any captain is as god as his team & capatincy doesn't ahve much role to play in win. Captain need to earnd his place in team as a player first based on consistent performance. To become captain of a winning team is nothing great if captain himslef is not a consistent performer. Following comment of gambhir(next captain) is very correct-
Gambhir pres conference after win over DC in IPL-4 dated 04/05/11 The left-hander also said that he was enjoying his stint as KKR captain. "I always enjoyed my captaincy whether it is for India, whether it is for Delhi [ Images ] or this one. You end up taking responsibility, you end up learning a lot, you feel happy when you end up winning," Gambhir said. "I always believed that there were never great captains and there will be no great captain. There are only great teams. No captain can win you the game. It is the team that wins the game. So far, I am enjoying my captaincy."
I agree 100% with gambhir statement. This captaicny hype is jist created in India by few politic

And dude, never call Sachin an emotionl to have uttered anything. He speaks less but speaks what he means and feels strongly.
Again, Remember it was Sachin who had recommended Dhoni for captaincy to BCCI when most of the players were senior to MSD at that time.

Re: Re: kings 11 punjab what a performance
by ASHISH KUMAR on May 18, 2011 05:38 PM
Again proved only match winner win matches. When players like gilli,marsh,Gyle,valthaty murder the opposition- it doesn't matter who is captain of opposition side.
On other's mind, only biasness decides, but on people like SACHIN and KIRSTEN, only REAL thing matters "He (Dhoni) is the best captain I have played under. He is very sharp and always alert. He reads the situation well and is open to sharing ideas. He always has discussions with bowlers, batsmen and senior players separately," said Tendulkar.
"I believe that he’s the best captain in world cricket today. He’s a leader by example. He brings a terrific match-effort to every single he game plays. He’s a 100 percent player as are the others in this Indian team. He expects his troops to be ready for battle. He’s calm and level headed. I have not seen him lose his temper. If things don’t go well, he takes the responsibility. When he came to the final he had a point to prove that he’s capable of winning the big games by taking the responsibility. He’s one of the great leaders of this country and he has a huge amount to offer from the leadership point of view. There’s no reason for him to move on and be the captain for the next few years." Says Kirsten
Now, who knows better, You barking here knowing nothing more than what is there in newspaper or your jealousy/biasness or these great people who have played/coached the guy from so close. In fact, th former doesn't matter...what matters is the the team's view

Regarding dhoni being captain of bangladesh- please check yr IQ level & read following Few of recent Dhoni credential as a captain: 1)shameful exit in 1st round of T20 wcup 2009 & 2010 after loosing all matches 2)shameful 1st round exit in ICC cup 2009 after loosing all matches 3)shameful 2-4 loss against Aus B team at home soil 2009 4)Loss 2-4 against same Aus in ODI series last time in 2007 5) shameful defeat in Asia cup final 2009 6) Shameful defeat in Triangular series in Bangladesh final. 7)Shameful defeat in 3rd ODI against SA when sachin/sehwag rested 8)Shameful inning defeat in 1st test match against SA in India when dravid/laxman not played due to injury. 9)Loss by an inning against SLK & SA in 1st test of series overseas 10)Loss against last SA ODI series 2-3.

B4 criticzing his capatanicy skill , dhoni does not deserved to be in Indian playing xi as a player. Gr8 politician openly backed RP Singh instead of Irfan Pathan since he hails from UP. Full backup willbe given to North Indian average players even if they failed terribely. If you are from South Indian or Western part of India he will never support.
Re: Re: Re: Dhoni great politician
by ASHISH KUMAR on May 18, 2011 04:40 PM
It doesn't matter who lead. When dhoni was rested, gambhir was captain & india won 5-0 against NZL. Indian team was better than NZL on indian pitches & India won. It doesn't matter whether captain was dhoni or gambhir or any tom dick- harry. same indian team struggled in SA ODI due to lack of capability even if dhoni was captain- who himself was abig failure as batsman in all matches. Its team win matches & not captain. It is as simple as that
Re: Re: Re: Re: Dhoni great politician

lol. kid, the point that you keep on missing is that, it is the captain that empowers a team and gets its players to rise to potential. Now if they have the potential team will win, if not it will not. But winning or losing is not the criteria to judge a captain, one needs to look at the process. Like i said, you need get de confused first. :)

u rubbish anurag- winning wcup is not only thing in cricket. Collingwood was captain of winning team of last T-20 wcup of england. Now he is scaked even as player as his form with bat is not good. It doesn't matter whether u win wcup or not - but if u are not a consistent performer & doing politics- u need to be kicked out. Mind u - Its indian team who won wcup & not politician dhoni alone

Mind u i am also a northy but hate politics & tahts why don't like politician /manipulator like dhoni in sports who just manage the thing like laloo.

I hope everyone will realise that under Dhoni, India is playing best cricket. If someone can mock at his WC final knock, I dont know; He/she must be just jealous of this man. Ultimately, only history matters. If Sachin can accept that Dhoni is the best captain, damn all others who does not. Remember, the gesture he showed by moving away from the world cup celebrations just to ensure that Sachin gets the limelight. When MK Gandhi is criticised ! Then we cannot spare anyone.
Re: Why run behind Dhoni?
by ASHISH KUMAR on May 18, 2011 02:16 PM
history matters only if u are a consistent performer. No one remeber now who is joginder sharma- who defended last 7 runs in last over of final of 2007 t-20 wcup & india win. History remember only player like bradman, richard, lara,warne,sachin ,kapil, imran, hadlee etc who were extraordinary in talent & won matches consistently for team. No one remeber aslo any captain if himself is not a big player. Now who remember yunus khan & collingwood who T-20 cup in 2008/2010 as a captain. In fact collingwood got sacked as a player last week due to his poor form. This captaincy hype & one inning history concept works only with political minded fans in India. So Guhan please don't keep repeating one inning for next 10 yrs. No one cares for that. Even balbindear singh sandhu took prized wicket of greenidge in 1983 wcup final. It doesn't mean that goginder sharma, sandhu, dhoni type player made history.
Re: Re: Why run behind Dhoni?
by Kumaar Guhan on May 18, 2011 02:43 PM
Get your logic right! Cannot compare Joginder sharma with Dhoni. Dhoni is a WC winning captain. He is one in a handful of captains to do so. The first to win both T20 and ODI WCups. In any sport everyone has to hand your boots. Roger federer or Pete sampras or the great Pele. Everyone. Kapil is remembered as a WC winning captain. It is for his knock again Zimbabwe (175). Ultimately, he does what he does best. Rest of you like you will only keep complaining.
It is just those few innings under pressure and life/death situation, that matters.
Gambhir played well, but he did not survive and finish the game for India. But one cannot ruleout his contribution.
Maybe you want to see Yuvraj or Gambhir as captain. We will see, but the teams performance will be drastically different.
I am not going here to advertise dhoni, but spare this soul who has given so much pride for this nation.
You will realise his contribution after 5 years from now.

Check the statistics of Dhoni in ODI before talking. There was a period when India was struggling to find out a consistent wicket keeper. In 90s the average run for a wk batsman is under 30. We should not forget that Dhoni has won many matches with batting in past.
Re: Re: Re: Why run behind Dhoni?

Re: Re: Why run behind Dhoni?

MSDhoni!!!
10 yrs ago, India was searching for a good wicket keeper batsmen and for a captain. The roll is now perfectly fullfilled by a single person in MSD. Criticizing people doesn't know this or they might be having poor memory power. When saba karim / nayan mongia was there they can bat for just 30-40 runs, but not 70 or above. To say it clearly MSD is a great minded captain, who extracts good performances from team members on field, and he becomes the happiest man, making others as match winners. Capitaincy is not easy, even the greats like Sachin has resigned from the job, stating that he will remain in the team as a batsman only. But on the other hand MS created 5-7 match winners in the team along with few greats. Greats: Sachin,Zaheer Match winners: Yuvi,Sehwag,Gauti,Kholi,Bhajji,Ashwin,Munaf,Nehra Under MSD, all Indian players play sensible cricket.For example, You can see,that there was no pressure on sehwag, even when he failed after his first game( vs Bangla). He calmly brought Ashwin in the middle phase of league games, and it worked. He kept Munaf and that worked. Great example is here, YUVI( worst in form before WC2011), MSD had faith in him and Cricket World knows what happened in WC. He is a kind of person, who enjoys teammate's game and by their performance extracts victories to team. He is great, when others fail, he himself does best for the team. Go check WC final, t20s, IPl 2009 semis etc
Re: Re: Re: Why run behind Dhoni?

See his records in 26 T-20 international he played. failure in all match. No fifty or match winning inning in entire career in T-20. pathetic strike rate of 102. His slow batting caused many losses to india in 2008/2010 T-20 wcup & ensured that india out in 1st round shamelesly in two consecutive wcup. I IPL also scored only against weak bowling attack but always a failure agisnt good bowler like malinga/styen/ojha etc. This IPL also when batting was tough in calcutta & CSK under pressure, he hided himself in toilet.

Do you feel if Dhoni was the captain of Kenya team then Kenya could have won the WC 2011? I hope it justifies, it's not the captaincy what brought us WC, rather it's the team balance and highly talented cricketers included in this WC.

MSDhoni!!!
10 yrs ago, India was searching for a good wicket keeper batsmen and for a captain. The roll is now perfectly fullfilled by a single person in MSD. Criticizing people doesn't know this or they might be having poor memory power. When saba karim / nayan mongia was there they can bat for just 30-40 runs, but not 70 or above. To say it clearly MSD is a great minded captain, who extracts good performances from team members on field, and he becomes the happiest man, making others as match winners. Capitaincy is not easy, even the greats like Sachin has resigned from the job, stating that he will remain in the team as a batsman only. But on the other hand MS created 5-7 match winners in the team along with few greats. Greats: Sachin,Zaheer Match winners: Yuvi,Sehwag,Gauti,Kholi,Bhajji,Ashwin,Munaf,Nehra Under MSD, all Indian players play sensible cricket.For example, You can see,that there was no pressure on sehwag, even when he failed after his first game( vs Bangla). He calmly brought Ashwin in the middle phase of league games, and it worked. He kept Munaf and that worked. Great example is here, YUVI( worst in form before WC2011), MSD had faith in him and Cricket World knows what happened in WC. He is a kind of person, who enjoys teammate's game and by their performance extracts victories to team. He is great, when others fail, he himself does best for the team. Go check WC final, t20s, IPl 2009 semis etc
