Its high time that BCCI shud think of respect of Indian cricket.BCCI has given the control to a useless , fancy, shameless capatain Mr.Dhoni. Take him off prior worldcup. He has made his billions so enough of chances. BCCI should impose ACCOUNTABILITY for the disasters indian cricket is going through. Indian cricket is run like a personal company of few influential millionaires. BCCI WAKE UP FROM YOUR SLUMBER AND SHOW THE DOOR TO DHONI & COMPANY. MOTTO SHUD BE PERFORM OR PARISH.
BUT MOTTO FOLLOWED IS PERFORMANCE IS NO CRITERIA.JUST BE CLOSE TO BCCI AND GET RICH.COUNTRY'S RESPECT TAKES A BACK SEAT.
Now that time and again DHONI's succes has proved FLUKE we have tie up between GANGULY & PATAUDI.. 1. PATAUDI is first captain of INDIA who first instilled fighting spirit in INDIA Team and lead from front to confidence to INDIAN cricket that YES INDIANs can win abroad 2. GANGULY took over INDIAN cricket to next level of aggression when the world cricket was feared with AUS sledging he was first one to look EYE to EYE with australians and that is how world realized to beat AUSTRALIA.....
If you put along Teams of diff generations for .....all the current International teams including SA/AUS/ENG/IND/PAK would be playing along side Qualifying nations (Tier 2 cricket countries like UAE/Afganistan etc)............or you can say these are India A, Australia A, Pak A team WRT to 90's teams, winning world cup does not make you best captain...... Fact that Ganguly cultivated pool of new age crickets like Yuvraj/Zak/Sehwag/Harbajan along side already establisted Sachin/Kumble/Dravid. Take any achievement by dhoni
1. T20 Wcup - One man show by Yuvraj in must win games prequarter & Quarter finals(vs ENG 6 6's, vs Aus 70 runs), finally people credited Dhoni hadling last over to Jogindar sharma....have any one seen Jogindar after that last ball so it was just gamble it worked Man of the series: G Gambhir, 50 in T20 final
2. ODI World Cup: Its yuvraj again Man of the series, Zak highest wicket taker Gambhir - 97 in Wcup final's
3. Test No.1 status: Destructive batting of Sehwag stabilizing the opening with G Gambhir, poor ZAK while credit always given to batsman but indias success always co-incides with ZAK in red-hot form
Ever contributing Sachin/Dravid/Kumble/Laxman 4. ICC Champions Trophy - this is the only one which can be attributed to Dhoni because this does not have Yuvraj/Zak/Sehwag/Gambhir...this win is purely by some of his bunnies (Jadeja/Ashwin/Rohit/Raina) but still Kohli & Dhawan are star performers who's success dhoni cant claim
INSTEAD OF PAYING HUGE SUM TO FOREIGN CRIKETERS AND NOT SO CAPABLE INDIAN CRIKETERS ON FAST TRACKS, THE IPL IS NOT DOING ANY GOOD TO INDIAN CRIKET. THEY SHOULD INVEST MONEY IN DEVELOPING FAST PITCHES IN INDIA.ONLY THIS THING CAN IMPROVE INDIAN CRIKETERS TO PLAY GENUINE FAST BOWLING AND PRODUCE GOOD AND GENUINE FAST BOWLERS. BOYCOTT WAS SAYING THAT SOUTH AFRICA SHOULD PREPARE FAST TRACK TO DEMOLISH INDIA. LOWLY PLACED NEWZELAND DID THE SAME THING EVEN WITHOUT DREADED FAST BOWLERS LIKE SOUTH AFRICAN FAME. TO MY MIND EVEN BANGLADESH HAD FEW GENUINE PACE BOWLERS WITH THEM ,THEY COULD HAVE DONE THE SAME THING WITH POOR INDIAN CRIKETERS. ENGLAND TEAM AND INDIAN TEAM ARE OF THE SAME CATEGORY RIGHT NOW. BOYCOTT USED TO BOOED FOR SLOW BATTING THROUGH OUT HIS CAREER BUT ON RETIREMENT EVERYBODY START ENACTING AS SUPERHUMAN ABD SUPOERGOD.

NEWZELAND CAPTAIN WAS SAYING THAT TEY HAVE SPECIAL STRATEGY TO DOWN INDIA. POOR THING YOU DO NOT REQUIRE ANY SUPER STRATEGY TO DOWN POOR INDIAN CRIKETERS. THEY HELP THEMSELVES TO PLAY IN THE HANDS OF OPPOSITION AQND THE OPPOSITION THINGS THAT THIS IS DUE TO THEIR APPLIED STRATEGY. HA... HAAAA.
Over-rated cricketers.. except a couple with genuine talent, others good for nothing on foreign pitches.. Shame on BCCI, the so called richest cricketing body not to have produced single world class pace bowlers when our neighbouring country can produce them at will.. Indian cricketers get enormous money playing IPL so who really cares playing for the country..

Badri is mr.cricket of india.because of vvs,dravid,Srt,dada he is unable to be in team. as the selectors are ignorant/regional based he is unable to be drafted after dada's retirement. Mukhund was not given chance continuously like virat. dinesh is better than dhobi but because of kumble he is unable to be in team. regionalism,betting,match fixing is destroying the team. dhoni is unfit to play above first class.but unfortunately he is still continuing since he is the front line manager for dee gangs betting ring.
After watching the series I feel that jadeja can be taken for runs only thing if the batsman hits him with straight bat he can be taken for runs. Playing him across the line leads to the downfall.
in home conditions. This applies even to ANZ if they go on to win next WC in their backyard. But the thing is we annoit greatness to players. We idolise them. A Rohit sharma is 'most talented ', player for ever. Shikhar Dhawan was about to be termed as next great thing. So is Virat Kohli. Ranji final is going on now at Hyderabad. Batsmen are plundering runs on a dead track. Surely next 'great', batsman is about to emerge from this contest and will be in contention for a berth in Team India. While Australia have Mcdermot , NZ have Shane Bond as bowling coaches who have played cricket at the highest level, India has some one called Dawes whom nobody has heard of. What guidance can he give to the clueless bowlers? But that is how the cookie crumbles in India.
