Sack Dhoni as captain with immediate effect.. Bring in Samson as Wkt Keeper/bat, He'll bring in a genuine batsman and a good enough keeper much better than Dhobi, to the side..
Appoint Kohli as the captain right away.. Stop embarrassing India, overseas..

rohit is a basicly domestic player so is ashvin....make virat captain now otherwise be ready for 0-4 defeat...
Unrest in the dressing room is quite understandable when the Captain doesnt speak to his players.The change in batting order should have been informed immediately and the choice of sending in-form Virat who is good at No4 was suicidal.Rahul Sharma should have been preferred.Indian bowlers did not maintain line and length to keep the Aus. tail-enders in check.
kohli got 7 minutes.... remember when wicket falls.. new batsman gets a lesser time than that.. its about handling pressure where Indian batsman collapsed.....
What ever the result, India did put up a tough fight. In any game or war, one has to win and one loose. Just one side can not win all. Despite injuries India did well,

Kaur: Well said. Few teams in history have stretched a test match to 4 days. Most tests finish in 1.56 days according to your research. Right?
This is a failure of leadership. What is Dhoni/Shastri/Fletcher doing in the dressing room? Watching the unrest and having fun?
Is Kohli turning into another Gambhir? Trying to back stab Dhoni in hopes of captaincy? Why should he make such a fuss to go out and bat? How is this situation any different from Dhawan going out there an getting out for the first ball? In that case Kohli should go out to bat anyway?

You're right. Dhoni did not show that he is a real leader. When his players were hesitant, he should have gone out to bat and shown his leadership skills.
He will never wake up. He knows that with Srini at the helm, he will remain captain even if India losses 4-0, 10-0 or 40-0. He is in the business of money and fame and from those yardsticks, he is doing really well.
What is more, he is able to keep TRUE statemate (not adopted state) Varun Aron in the team who bowls "super-fast" but gives 7.5 runs per over and hardly takes any wicket.
If you want to know, Ajit Wadekar (inspite of being a Mumbaikar) lost his captaincy after a 2-1 series defeat.

Business of money and fame, who works for free. Do go to work just for the love of it, If you was made manager would you leave your position for some one junior then you or you will carry on until you retire?
