One thing is clear we have good cricketers in India. Politics sucks cricket. As long as Srinivasan is the BCCI President Dhoni will have his say & then ...

Dhoni's first major success came in South Africa where, if my memory serves me right, Pieterson could not find a place in the test team?

May be he is successful but Chennai has a lot of luck..or is the luck a managed one?..in the last match against punjab,Raina was run out when he had scored only a couple of runs..2 replays were available..one of them showed clearly he was out of crease while the other cam didnt have the correct frame to show him out..but the umpire strangely chose to follow the latter..and raina went on to score a ton.

Anil - bails should be off. Bails off timing is only taken for runouts. Not that the ball hits the stumps. Baills off - it is important. Even other teams has same runout decisions in this IPL. don't be biased pls.

India must prepare sporty wickets

I feel that for the overall devolepment of Indian cricket, Indian Board shall preapre only sporty wickets rather than mere square turners. Then only we can even think of wiining abroad.

Wonderful. Your glass is half empty all the time I guess. He is from India, so he understands Indian pitches well. That is a compliment.

Obviously, KP cannot call another captain "the best" without getting UK media worry about his thoughts about his own captain. He is giving a compliment to MSD. Take it instead of complaining about foreign conditions.

& that is where he not only flopped ,but chickened out without even a show of fight.The great captains or sides like West Indies & Llyod of 80's & Aussies in 90's & first decade of 2000 under Border,Taylor & Vaugh won most contests in test format.He hs very little to show where it matters,however,he is certainly one of the all time great players & Captain in ODI & T20

Who chickened out without a fight? Dhoni? He is actually the most winning Indian captain, in the history. He does not have little to show, he won a world cup and a T20 world cup. Lloyd and Border/Taylor/Waugh had great teams. Dhoni actually did the best with what he had.

I don't know why Indian fans even complain about Dhoni. He is the best we ever had in that role. Why not show the due respect instead of complaining he is not a great captain like Taylor, of all people?

This regional biased criticism has to stop. I am from south india and I think MSDhoni is the best captain India had and India is lucky to have him.

We know how the Indian team fared when Tendi was the captain and also he himself failed miserably. What is important is that he gets the job done and has the team win many trophies. That is what matters. Few other players used the field to amass wealth and pull records for own benefits. Dhoni is not a record material for sure.
