So what's wrong in it?

Even if it's Dhoni's decision to keep Sehwag out for the next two tests, what's wrong in it? Why so hype and hoopla on this petty issue; why not praise the captain for winning all two out of two tests for India?

why should he be praised for victories when he should not be blamed for defeats?

Give me one name apart from Dhoni that has been blamed for defeats in the past two years.

Sachin/Laxman/Gambhir/Sehwag/Dhoni/Zaheer. And rightly so....!

There's a difference in 'criticizing' and 'blaming' just like between 'journalism' and 'paid news'...I still cannot see anyone blamed for the past defeats except Dhoni. Yeah, a bit of criticism here and there could be for others too.

Equally surprising is that even foreign media praises Dhoni despite of the defeats/wins for his courage and leadership skills, besides his batting prowess...nobody really takes notice of the fact that he is giving in substantial contribution as a wicketkeeper too. But anyways, we all have our own opinions:)

Foreign media never criticises Sachin. It does not mean he is perfect.
But yes, opinions differ :)

I was just blaming the people I thought were the reasons for the whitewashes.

Grover, nobody is telling that it is wrong to keep Sehwag out. It is just that Dhoni fans are offended by this statement.

IPL close by

Sehwag has been concentrating too much on IPL which is to fall around April, 2013. This is why he is running in poor form. Would have been happy if he was dropped from IPL instead of the Test Matches

Forget IPL, he cannot do anything even in club class matches

That would be too harsh. It's true he has his own class but age is simply taking over and men typically are reluctant to admit it, isn't that true? He now builds his innings mainly through dropped catches...notice that.

Agree with you. Most of his initial runs are either edges or dropped catches nowadays.

Why this chap wish to remain in headlines with controversy only, foot in mouth syndrome. It is well known secret that Sehwag was instrumental in creating division in the team that was the main reason for team India's dismal performance in down under and against England with support from his Delhi colleagues.

ganguly from a leader has become to wimp
by abhinav jain on Mar 11, 2013 08:37 AM

its a shame, he cries foul over everything. never corrected his own lacks like playing short ball, used to effect team scores. ran around begging to take him.

sehwag has become non performer, he should not be in team if he only performs in IPL. Bhajji is so useless, only hatrick against australia kept him for 10 years in team. Even in the hatrick 1 wicket was wrongly given by umpire.

Ganguly is biased

Ganguly supported Bhajji so much and he even went on record saying Ashwin should be replaced by Harbhajan. Now, he is keeping quiet on that issue.

Ganguly is a pain in a.. for indian team while playing and after retirement. He is too biased guy supporting useless players.. I wish sehwag accepts his failure, focus on the game and comeback rather relying on political guys.

Professionalism:

Even if Dhoni has submitted his opinion and it was accepted then what's wrong? As a captain don't he supposed to have his opinion about the team he is leading. If Sehwag was performing bad or whatever then can't the team management discuss it with the selection panel?
