narrow minded comment. by forgetting laxman in that list you proved egoistic and jealousy. do not comment him. he may not be great. but he is a better captain
I liked Dhoni till world cup. Gauti was upset as he got all the credit. He created mental stress for seniors like Veeru, Gauti, Laxman, dravid, Harbhajan etc. Ganguly was better in that. Ganguly lost in world cup final against strong Aus team otherwise we could have that cup also. Against this team Jadeja, Ashwin got wickets as they got more over. He tactfully applies the over and time his players perform and not others.

"To lead people, walk beside them ... As for the best leaders, the people do not notice their existence. The next best, the people honor and praise. The next, the people fear; and the next, the people hate ... When the best leader's work is done the people say, 'We did it ourselves!'" — Lao-tsu
These questions are ridiculous. Dhoni is just one player in a 12 member team. It is not like this guy scores centuries after centuries or makes players better. A team is only as good as its players. Indian news media's rubbish attitude and glorifying one person in a team game is self serving.

ABSOLUTELY CORRECT. In my view, Dhoni is just an ordinary performer but he is captalising the good performance of a very talented team. Some time by bowlers, by batsman and by division in opposite teams. He is a captain by chance and luck

thats right even steven waugh, ricky ponting, clive loyed all great captains were ordinary it was just that they got a talented team that they were successful. leadership qualities and taking out the best from a talented person has no value..

Dhoni has single handedly won most number of ODIs for India than any other player.. this alone is proof enough..
We are forced to extol the contributions of any cricketer, especially captains like Dhoni, Ganguly, and Azhar for their performance on ONLY Indian soil.
Will India ever see a captain for his lofty performance abroad?. Will India produce three neat pacers or fast bowlers, atleast of Manoj Prabhakar calibre--if not of Kapil Dev's calibre.
