I totally agree Dhoni is BEST .... Kholi has still to mature .... He is Eyeing birds and they fly while playing ....
blameing other is a tradition to our crick eters. you perform best then you talk about others. indian pitch is different out pitch is different. this thing all knows for the past 30 years. there is no new thing. the question is who will perform out side well. for the same players to goto england and other places to play country cricket first or during their rest time go and practice in aborad.
Virat Kholi and Pujara are over rated batsmen. The past players and media praised sky high about Kholi and said he would beat Sachin's record in no time. Pujara was hailed as next Dravid. One should reserve their opinions till they watch these players performing in test matches in England and Australia before comparing to the past greats. These two have to go a long way before coming anywhere near Sachin and Dravid.

Dont point fingres ,,, You seems to be immature ... it hurts Flecture is expert choosen by us ... he has ex[ertose ....
We have lost the FIRE to perform in test cricket. All because of Dhonie involvemtn in T20 and all the money and glamour.
When he can play T20 cricket within few hours and make so much more money why would Dhoni want to play test cricket??? There is no motivation...
When you can make so much more money in T20 slamming the ball around blindly for a few hours - and where there is less responsibility (it is more of a luck factor involved) why would Dhoni want to play 5 gruelling days of Test cricket?
Test match cricket obviously requires much more character and skill to last 5 days and play towards winning a match. He hss clearly indicated his dis interest in TEst match cricked by saying thigs like "We get more rest if match finishes early", "forget about Test lets focus on ODI / T20", etc
Absolutely no disappointment or feeling of shame that he lost...
Young talented team..they will learn from their mistakes..Dhoni should continue as captain..but PICK "RAYUDU"for Australia series..he will be very handy batsman at no 6..like VVS..he will become very good test batsman...
