It was a very good gesture on the part of Gambhir to have passed on the MOM award to D Das. He is also right that Das is a star in the making because to-day's finish was no fluke. Even earlier Das has played useful aggressive innings for KKR. But what must have stumped everybody must be when he said that Gambhir was his inspiration ! He didn't name Saurav Ganguly ! Well,well..well, Gurudas Gasguptaji , are you listening ? Couple of weeks ago A Rahne named Rahul Dravid as his Role model. Just imagine he dared not to name Sachin Tendulkar ! Likes of Gurdas Dasgupta, Sonia Gandhi must be careful playing such 'vote bank politics' on popular cricketers name ! It could boomerang actually. Now coming to the game, the team management of CSK must pray for Dhoni to realize before it is too late that ‘fine cutting’ to last over or last ball might make the game very exciting for IPL-5 but it is only going to take the team down in the dump more often due to improvement in other teams strength over all ? And when are CSK going to earn a comprehensive win ? As captain of CSK it might be Ok for popularity of IPL but can the selectors risk Dhoni as captain gamble away in similar fashion fate of team India in the forthcoming T20 WC ?

Dhoni is kalank of indian cricket for his biased approach giving chance to raina a total failure in place of manoj tiwari.He should be punished by the almighty for his beastly deeds.
Dhoni wants his chamchas like Jadeja, Ashwin, Raina in the team. They and Dhoni himself have hardly contributed for CSK this time. DD and KKR look promising this time

So repeating a good deed is copy-paste? If so, let there be more copy-pastes, it will do all of us a whole lot of good.

it was a good gesture, crediting other performances, gambhir's wicket was the key, even though he got out too late for csk, still there was the finishing job to be done and without das that wouldn't have been possible. And as already stated , gambhir had done the same thing with kohli at kolkata when both hit centuries with gambhir hitting his career best knock.
gambhir the wounded star has been playing with mission ,he wants to prove that he is big match player and never deserved to be kicked out of vice captaincy ,dhoni needs to do some soul searching defend all his players not just chmachas. we all know in the end CSK will win the finals as srinivasan is still the BCCI president but.......

dhoni is doing all sorts of nasty work in indian cricket.He is against merit.he is against tendulkar,sehwag,gambhir terming them as buddha when he himself is a buddha, may be 40 plus as per his actual age!He robbed gambhir of vice captainship and gave it to lesser quality player kohli, he consistently giving chances to raina in place of manoj;all nasty deeds.

How u can say ganguly is leading pwi from the front? In limited overs cricket, whether odi or t20, performance wise, dhoni is not that bad as u seems to suggest. Why dont u take the names of sachin, ganguly etc? SO please be unbiased while stating ur views

don't always include ganguly every were,he is not leading from front,his poor form causing pwi more problem,he is not making run,the work of captain to play his role and to make run/take wicket. but thats not happening with ganguly,he is selfless man,he is just playing in kolkata ranji one day team for just keep fit for i.p.l .
