India& poor countries MUST ban Test Cricket& 3 day macthes forever&Play ONLY T20 matches or ODI matches ONLY during Holidays or Week_Ends ONLY so that millions of man or woman hours are NOT lost watching monotonous Test cricket& 3 day macthes,etc.
The question is ... did Dhoni make it "different" or did he make it "large".
The opinion may vary from which region of India you come from. But the fact is that Dhoni has failed to emerge as a winner after the departure of Gary Kirsten. He hasn't made any impression as team leader, wicketkeeper or batsman.
By now, its clear that Dhoni owes his success to master strategy by Kirsten who was ably assisted by Venkatesh Prasad and Robin Singh.
He also owes his success to team play by a combination of experienced & younger players:
* All round performance by the "Man of the Series" Yuvraj Singh who dominated the opposition with solid batting, aggressive fielding, and surprising success with spin bowling
* World class fast bowling by Zaheer Khan who managed to break opening partnerships and took wickets when needed
* Economical and restraining bowling by Harbhajan who took wickets and wealded bat when needed.
* Masterly and consistent batting by Sachin Tendulkar
* Super fielding and batting by young Virat Kohli supported by Yusuf Pathan, Gautam Gambhir, Suresh Raina, and Virender Sehwag
* Supporting bowling by Munaf Patel, Ashish Nehra, and Amit Misra.
Now take away Zaheer, Yuvraj, Kohli, Harbhajan, Sehwag, and Tendulkar. Replace them with players from Tamilnadu - with gratitude to Srinivasan and Shrikkanth. What do you get?
The results of the current England trip! Not fair and biased .. you may say but you don't

India& poor countries MUST ban Test Cricket& 3 day macthes forever&Play ONLY ODI matches T20 matches On Holidays or Week_ends ONLY so that millions of man or woman hours are NOT lost watching monotonous Test cricket& 3 day macthes,etc.It is possible that This game of cricket lasting many days was invented by British looters like inventing british double agent mahatma gandhee& dirty trick of non-violence, to fool people of colonies& to make them lazy&morrrons FOREVER too by addciting them with all types of dirty tricks. BCCI& rulers are still behaving as slaves of Westerners, shame they have appointed white skinned westerners as coach,etc paying millions of dollars though we have excellent indian coaches like jimmy amarnath, madan lal,etc who can do better jobs than foreigners.BCCI& government must NOT allow more than 2 foreign players in each team&Give greater opportunity to indians.Shame that BCCI& rulers are behaving as slaves of westerners even now or are they getting huge kick-backs in the deals involving forein players,etc,Millions of cricket fans mustNOT allow our country to be looted again by foreigners&foreign agents.Hope millions of indians are listening& give justice to indian public& to national honour&pride too.
From the first day of the Lords test, it seems luck is not favouring our side. Look at the turn of events you can see, Zaheer Khan after taking 02 wickets was injured. India has bowl with four bowlers. Second test Harbhajan Injured and from 124 for 8 England gone up to 224. 3rd Test Sehwag out for very first ball, that decision after referral. Dravid though batted well dropped catches in crucial times . Even in West Indies he dropped Chandrapaul when he was 16 and he went on to make 130 and the test was drawn. Above all Dhoni and Harbhajan seems to have problems regarding the Advertisement that seems to be the reason for bowling flat against England in the first test and faking muscle pull and opting out of the tour. He was fit for Champions Trophy within no time. So why Harbhajan bowled flat giving so many runs in Test Matches and not available for One dayers in think is a Misery. In first One day they have bowled well and picket up two wickets but rain came to the rescue of England. And int the fourth one dayer also 11 runs needed for 07 balls with Broad is injured and last man in. India might have won it but again rain god gave series to England. So my advidce is to consult an Astrologer before proceeding for a series is a better idea. Or take Brejan Daruwalla along with Indian squad.
