Dhoni' current result
by thengazhikam mamen on Mar 26, 2013 05:13 PM

His current result is very astonishing. Because he is very lucky and successful captain inthe cricket history. He is an alrounder. He can keep wicket, bat and good captain. I am givinghims 100 marks out of 100. Keep it up and win more matching in coming years.

A leader who kept a group of people together as a team - from the most diverse country - and won.

True!

He also helped a non-functioning, unworthy, OLD player keep his place in the team!

Dhoni will be remembered not only for his skills as a captain but also for his generosity towards a particular OLD, incompetent player!

Biggest achievement as captain

Biggest achievement as captain?

Tolerating and enduring the presence of a out-of-form, has-been, non-performing player like Sachin in the team!

Dhoni has infinite amount of patience to do this!

Playing a Cricket match time and again with 10 performing players and 1 badly non-performing player is a great feat by any captain!

That way the nation tolerated the out of luck and non-performing Dhobi's captaincy for a long long time...That's the problem with Indian fans, they have short memories. One series win against an incompetent Aussies and you all forgot that how we lost like dogs against a weak Aussie team in Aus, Eng in Eng, Eng in India....this series victory will not take Indian cricket forward. Wins abroad will do. Let's talk during India's SA tour

Will Sachin be in the team during the SA tour?

Doubtful!

Even an illustrious captain like Dhoni cannot keep Sachin in the team forever!

I am not talking abt Sachin...irrespective of him being there or nto in the team, the team will lose against SA badly. Coz of the team culture Dhobi's building. Man India was winning in India even when Azhar was a captain. What extra has Dhobi achieved ?? I am specifically talking about TEST matches. Dhobi is always found asking for spinning tracks. The day is not far when will be only winning in India and losing like dogs outside. It's already happening against Eng, Aus, SA, soon it will happen against WI, Zim and other small teams

So which Indian captain has won convincingly abroad?

Simply because Indian batsmen cannot play on bouncing, fast pitches in foreign countries and India doesn't have good fast bowlers, it is Dhoni's fault India loses??

During Ganguly and for a brief period during Dravid & Kumble's captaincy we were playing well abroad. We were not winning, but we had made good progress abroad. But the Great Dhobi has washed out all these great colors. BTW: If Dhobi is praised for WC, then he should be blamed for debacles in Test matches abroad. A captain takes the blame and the praises
