Crone the SA captain and likes of jadeja azaruddin kiran more So effectively dropping cathes throwing wickets Once this dirt was cleaned Sachin single handedly won sharjah cup And the force of Ganguly Dravid and laxman Australia was shown there place In england we destroyed england and in south africa we managed to pull a draw

Sharjah cup was in 98; Tendulkar captained Indian team to Australia in 99; how come he did not "singlehandedly destroy" them in 99?
M/s. Tendulkar,Dravid and Laxman will remain all time great as a 'player; but neither as match winners nor as 'captains.' Dhoni excels all of them in all the three areas though no where near the masters of all time-cricket! greats

Without 10 dulkar/ Dravid there was no possibility of Dhoni... Remember they are like Daynd night... Both VERRAZANO necessary but especially the latter cannot exists without the former...

Then how come with Tendulkar and Dravid India lost miserably in England and without them, young players have beaten England 5-0 I am confused

IT IS TEAM THAT IS GOOD/ BAD AND MAKES GOOD /BAD CAPTAIN . IF DHONI IS GOOD CAPTAIN THEN WHY INDIA LOST ALL IN ENGLAND? WE LOST IN ENGLAND BCOZ WE ARE NOT AT FULL STRENGTH. SEE R. POINTING EXAMPLE WAS WINING ALMOST ALL GAME WHEN HYDEN, WARNE , MCGRATH PLAYING , GOOD FULL TEAM RICKY WAS GREAT CAPTIAN THEN ,WHT HAPPEN AFTER THESE PLAYER RETIRED RICKY BECAME BAD CAPTAIN ANH? DHONI IS LUCKY HE GOT GOOD TEAM TO LEAD. ASK DHONI TO LEAD ZIMBABWE THEN SEE THE RESULTS . THE POINT IS THAT THERE IS NO BAD/GOOD CAPTIAN IT IS THE TEAM THAT MAKES CAPTAIN
At a time of sachin era, Many match fixing was played in indian team and due to which performance was not at their best. Only captain and his good decision can win the matches, currently Some time dhoni also take wronge decision but his good luck is that change works for him. and currently everybody knows that if they play for winning than they will get money by ny chance. that time it was totally opposite. Dont blame sachin's brain capacity

MI could win a final only when Sachin was NOT captain. Harbhajan led the team well in CL T20. Well done Bhajji. You are a good captain who made a poor team like MI win.
Thank Lord that because of his decision we saw one of the greatest captain ever take India to a different level. Sourav has been the caotain India needed at that juncture.

Rahul Should have made captain right that time..Saurav was arrogant and being thougth as strong leader ..that was wrong judgement..He was certainly good player , He would have played many more exciting innings had he not made captain. He was bit whimsical, less balance of emotions at time he will scream, after some time he will hug the same player...A good captain don't necessarily shown emotions easily . They just act...Ajit wadekar was one of the fine captains Ind has produced...Azar was good on fields but he made the unforgiving blunder..Sandeep Patil would have been good captain had he lasted long in cricket career.Anil Kumble was good too but he didnt have long career as captain...

Irfan, your brother Yusuf wasted it all that he got.
Yusuf wasted his chances in WI, got jealous when the coach did not send him ice towel and started to use towel of WI players. Then, threw his wicket. Yusuf should start listening to Akram and start shaving or his own brother.
In england, Munaf patel had fitness issues and did not disclose. He could not even bend properly. When given a chance, he did not stay with the team in dressing room to have D/L favor india when it was drizzling, he sat with Angrez spectators so team returns to play as the Angrez wanted.
then, zaheer did not disclose his fitness problem.
there are issues with reliability as far as gambhir and kohli are concerned. either they cannot play quality pace or they are unreliable like those 1st and 5th One dayers with england in India.
Parthiv has failed against quality pace for reasons best known to him. Rahane needs to keep what he gained in Mohali or delhi.
We need to have few good pacers, Yadav, Ishant, Aaaron have to increase flexibility, pace and variation. Same with Spin, medium pace and batting ...
