Re: Re: Dhoni captaincy and spin bowling let India down!!!!! by shrek (View MyPage) on Nov 26, 2012 01:58 PM He has an average of 37 and earlier it was in fifties. Selectors open you eyes Ashwin has more average than Dhoni. When is this world captain leading from front Look at michael clarke Greame smith, Sangakkara, Alistair cook all have lead their sides to great wins WE NEED A CAPTAIN WHO LEADS FROM FRONT NOT ONE WHO DOES NOTHING AND STAYS IN TEAM FOR HIS CAPTAINCY. OPEN YOUR EYES INDIA. send him back ask him to prove his ability in Ranji tests and come back. There are enough youngsters who can be groomed as captain like pujara who will be regular part of team not kohli as he will get carried away most of times. Sehwag or gambhir can do it for time being and then transfer it to some youngster who is performing and has cemented his place in the team. Player who is on high note in his career can be a good captain
In Mumbai? Really? With rigged IPL, rigged W or ld Cup, rigged T ests, a shady board, over-the-hill players, rank chuckers and 'slingers', I gave up on the whole rag bag. Surprised that there are still people who are still into 'Indian' cricket!
People are blindly criticising Sachin for India's loss, when he is just one of the playing eleven. It is the collective failure of the batsmen to tackle spin, whereas the Englishmen did it better than us.
If any single person is to be held responsible, it is the Captain, who specifically demanded a turner, and when he got one, he could not command the team nor could he personally contribute with the bat.
His captaincy for the test team need to be reconsidered.
In any case, the hope of India's revenge 4-0 defeat is now over.

When people credit him for every indian victory, when he actually didnt do anything, its only fair to criticize him
Dhoni is at its worst possible trying to save his grace with atmost defensive captaincy. With all respect he has done to Indian cricket its time for him to stepdown from his captaincy. I feel his shelflife is over. With scoring runs and below average keeping he can't be in Indian team. I am surprised to see Indian spinners flighing the bowl and expecting it to tutrn, while they knew bowl might turn when you even bowl at pace and can cause problem (Like panesar did). Disappointing to see player who has taken 400 wickets was a real let down in this spin friendly track.
