azhar india's first really successful captain built the indian team of dravid laxman ganguly himself sachin kumble bhajji etc. and ganguly plucked the fruits of azhar's work..
DHONI has to go a long way and prove a lot more. It is like "INDIAN DEMOCRACY"- PARTIES , Never securing more than 50 % of the votes polled, ruled India. What a statistical falacy ?
During Gavaskar & Kapil Dev era, Indian cricket team started showing weight in international scene (including 83 WC; test wins in WI, etc.) Little later, under Azhar, India started winning more consistently at Home. Under Ganguly, India started having more bite overseas too. Under Dhoni India is formidable at home and looks good to do well overseas too (Dhoni needs to pass this test - if he doesn't, then next captain should). All captains build up the tempo and lay platform for subsequent teams and captains. So, credit of Dhoni's success should be shared by all previous captains too.

Relax. Dhoni is just another individual like u & me. His job is to play cricket. He is trying to do his best. Sometimes, he wins, sometimes he loses. Its common to all of us. Dont pity urself. Just do focus on your job and try your best. Dhoni & cricket are for our entertainment only, they are not life itself. Dont get obsessed with anyone or anything.
1)plays at no 7 comes after dismissal of main batsmen but most of time throws his wkt and after post mach presentation comments on bat batting by top order. 2)He hand over ball to his competant bowler when pitch not favours him (eg.-Bhajji) 3)at time of WC finale everything was going right gambhir & Yuraj(was in great touch) would have finished very nicly but quickly Dhoni entered in ground. 4)I don't remember that he played very sensational knock from CSK to win their titles infact CSK countinuously have been purchasing quality players around cricket world and providing to Dhoni. These Channia Channai Super lungi been responsible for his launching

No, Not agreeing Dhoni all time best Indian captain. Firstly his record in foreign soil as captain is extremly poor. Also in India he mostly won against weaker time like this OZ. Sachin or Ganguly have faced much stronger sides during their time. Ganguly,s record as captain in abraod is much impressive than that of Dhoni.

Ganguly didnt become a best caption from day u1 he built a team which performed when needed. But Dhoni that is not the case. he is bulding a team now lets us wait for a year and see how his team perform. my point he has handled the transition very well so far.

Bradman can't be compared to Tendulkar. Bradman is much better. due to above factors. Modern day is 80% batsman's game
