IDIOT Arvin, jadeja may have given money to rediff, for that you need to have money, and money comes from hard work and talent. IDIOTIC arvin it seems you a street beggar, who does hot have will, hard work not talent to do anything. YOU ARE A LOSER....
The selectors and experts have been magnanious or diplomatic in saying that Ten dulkar must be allowed to select his time to retire! It seems he has not understood the message.... Rather He MUST retire before they say that He WILL retire! Probably the advertisers have paid him so much for the future that the cant afford him to retire! May be they are tha ones who are telling all the selectors and experts to say 'leave it to him' He has NOT done anything better than Viru or Gauti who were on the wrong side of the captain and were dropped! Dhoni had started speaking of runs only after he scored! that too ONLY in chennai! he failed thereafter! so has Virat! where were they when Viru scored century and got the only success from England!

if tendulkar continues (because nobody has the guts to drop him), he will become the first cricketer in test history to use the bat as a walking stick

The Cricket Establishment & the media hype have made Sachin Tendulkar bigger than the game of Cricket. When Dravid, Ganguly & Laxman could be nudged into retirement or players like Sehwag, Zaheer & Gambhir dropped on account of performance, why is the team forced to carry Sachin Tendulkar who has become a passenger or excess baggage.
Sachin WAS a great player and he had given Indian cricket and Indians a lot of joy & pride with his game but frankly; it is time for him to go!

When Tendulkar has 10 in his name itself, and he really deserves that name, who is the one that gives him 4 marks??? Those giving marks do not even know how to hold a bat or how a bat looks like, forget cricket.
The Ravindra jadeja surprise package of course completely turned the Indian bowling unit on its head.Jadeja became not just the 5th bowler but a real catalyst to make Ravichandran Ashwin more effective and deadly. If only Jadeja had been picked for the English series then it would have been a far closer series.Besides R/Ashwin himself also bowled beautifully to deservedly become the man of the series yet again after failing the English Test. Ashwin says a kick on his back from Fletcher made him improve his bowling! If it were as simple as that then why not Fletcher gives one to Ishant as well ? B/Kumar and Ojha also had their very useful contribution at crucial junctures even while the MB providing his moral support with his presence. Now the Question is where does Dhoni &co. from here ? First, Captaincy debate dies down for sure unless Jimmy amaranth has some fresh disclosures to make! Issues relating to inclusion of Bhajji and Sehwag also appears to have been settled in a way. They will have to go through the domestic grind for sure to make a come back. Next , is middle order bolstering and Sachin’s future .Last but not the least is rebuilding of a new look pace attack with likes of Umesh Yadav, Varun aron etc. in the injured list filling their deserving places in the youth brigade. BCCI has time till Oct. for that exercise.

MS Dhoni is NOT ONLY the greatest Indian Cptain Ever, BUT also the Greatest Cricket Cpatain that world cricket has seen,Folks! One Billions indians can be proud of MS Dhoni&Tendulkar&their records will remain forever,perhaps???
(contd.).Now coming to India, how did Dhoni & co. turn around things ? Of course the starting point had to be Dhoni himself after that famous Jimmy Amarnath bashing—“… Dhoni did not find a place in Test playing XI!...”. It was the Dhoni’s brilliant 99 against England at Nagpur that started the resurgence! Rest, as they say is history! Yes, after the Nagpur Test, next Dhoni came up with that Rajnikant like ‘reel’ innings of double century which marked virtually a vertical take -off for the Indian side thereafter even while the Aussies going down like the occasional ISRO rocket falling into the sea after 1st stage failure !The next big X-factor was the consistent opening stands after exit of both Sehwag-Gambhir pair which had been letting down team India the last three series. In Shikhar Dhawan and M/Vijay a major ‘opening batting ’ worry seems to be getting sorted out with even Gambhir remaining as the 3rd option. Further to a good opening stand, the middle order became more stable although the batting as a whole is still in rebuilding stage with likes of Pujara, Kohli ,Dhoni , jadeja etc. needing more exposures in alien conditions. At least for now at home conditions Pujara has been exceptional with Kohli and Dhoni chipping in with useful knocks whenever the team needed them.
