yes i can understand your frustration that you are proved wrong again and again and i am proved right again and again...:)
Disagree. If you read this caption, you would think india has a brand new world beating team. The second point is, it is questionable if dhoni had anything to do with the development of this team.
1. Pujara: He worked hard on his game in ranji trophy and other matches. Got opportunities and played well in every test match. What has dhoni go tto do woth this?
2. Kholi: He built his game on his hard work. What has Dhoni got to do with that?
3. Ashwin: He went back and corrected his issues in test matches. HE cut down his silly T20 varations in test matches and is now a more effective bowler. What has Dhoni got to do with this?
Yes. Dhoni does a few favors to guys like JAddu boy and may be that is what this article refers to.
Dhoni is a complete failure when it comes to building an effective team. HE spends more time with his commercials and his IPL team than worry about things like building the Indian team. He simply has no time for India.
These news org. should stop taking fans for granted and stop publishing untruths.

Dhoni is nowhere near Smith the greatest test captain presently accept this fact painfully ok Smith is truly Great
team will be humiliated all over the world for next 18 months as there are no home matches and will be too much for youth brigade to perform on bouncy / fast pitches...
I think luck has been with Dhoni plus the backing of Srinivasan .Still , the selectors do not want him to continue as captain . He hasn't built a team at al . He has only developed a mini Chennai Super Kings team within the Indian team ( Dhoni , Jadeja ,Ashwin ,Vijay). He has hardly given chances to talents like Manoj Tiwari , Ashok Dinda ,Ambati Rayudu , Ajinkya Rahane . A great leader is one who builds everyone , not just his set of players. Real test would come when he leads the team to South Africa and where the batting would be against the likes of Steyn , Morkel , Philander and Abbott .Can batsmen like Vijay ,Dhawan ,Jadeja , Pujara and himself play on the fast pitches of Durban , Cape Town , Centurion , Bloemfontein , Johannesburg , Port Elizabeth ? Can Jadeja and Ashwin really bowl well there ?

Dear Rupan, big hugs to you for nailing it. But please hail Dhobi for Nurturing his dearest baby His Highness Lord Sir Ravinder Jhadua...He has taken personal interest and responsibility to ensure Jhadu is in the team till he is comfortable. What Love man...Truly hats off...Next you will hear Shambu and Champu are also in the team and Dhobi will Open the innings till they are comfortable in the middle order
before the IPL because, had the team lost to the Aussies also, then the impending IPL would become a farce - what it is in reality. In no way the business men at the BCCI would have tolerated another home defeat, and they did all they could to ensure the Indian 'superstars' rise again before the IPL. I have no doubt that this Indian team wouldn't have survived even 3 full days on any of the pitches used in this series had they been used in the recent series against the English team. You can bet on that.
Tendulkar is not a burden. He is an inspiration. He is jewel in the crown. He desrves better words than "burden" for not doing so well as we expect from him.
Let us learn lesson from Australia and England where they never let down their hero in the way we treat our star performers.

Till the foreign tours are done. Waiting for this young brigade to be schooled overseas! Your question then would be "Why not longer"!!
lets see after the next overseas tour...Dhoni has taken the Indian team back to the days of Azhar/Wadekar, when we won at home and got decimated overseas..
Australia although suffered the most humiliating series defeat against India they did put up spirited performance. Anyways Congrats MSD and team India.
