it is interesting to watch the IPL champions KKR (1 time IPL winner) and CSK (two time winner) still winless and struggling to stay in CLT20 tournament where are local club players not a big name like IPL (Hussey, Raina, Dhoni, Albie, Hify in a same team and Gauti, Brendon, Kallis, Narine, Lee in same team)

CSK came last in last CLT-20 also while loosing 3 out of 4 matches. Dhoni is simply a overhyped medicore politicain nothing more. He has never got any MOM in any of CLT-20 & t-20 intnl even after playing more than 50 matches. He can't make more than 25xcbx8-35 & win match for his team

What I thought of saying, you have said it very well. Excepting for one IPL team winning against another IPL team KKR, none of our IPL teams has won against other teams so far. There are many many lessons to be learnt by Indian Cricketers, if they are truly interested.
Now CSK and KKR are virtually out of CLT20, another twom teams of IPL are DD and MI which may be in semi's of this year CLT20, with MI already lost one match, most probably the DD will make it to semi's because they are really balanced side which suits the Africa conditions.... so DD has good hope if they have not done any f**lish

DD has won the match with KKR and not with other T20 team. Let them first prove that they can win other T20 teams also.

T20 is a game where you need to play big shots but this guy just wants to rotate strike. Dhoni should understand that just taking singles won't win match

It is not d-honi fault. he doesn't have technique opr talent to score runs quickly if wicket is not flat or opposition bolwer is good or team is under pressure. he knows his limitation. He knows only one helicopter shot whicc can work only on flat subcontinent pitches

you are right. Even in T-20 intl India has been knocked down in super eight for 3 consecutive w cup & lost 7 out of 9 matches. He failed with bat also in every match. In CLT also out of 4 CLT, in 3 tournaments CSK lost almost all matches & came last. His overseas record in all formats is worst & no captain in history has got so many chance after so many defeats.

He is a St- - id guy making excuses after excuses , blaming everyone and everything except himself , totally uncaptainlike , strengthening his case to be remoived from indian captaincy . people are fed up of his excuses .
after 15 for 2 dhoni shud have an attacking fieldset.instead he brought his part timers and then gulam bodi and mckenzi got settled and towards the 10th over they started hitting big sixes.he cannot give these types of silly excuses. one six cannot shift the momentum of the match
