Time to check Dhoni
by K Ram on Jan 23, 2014 09:03 PM

Why single out Ashwin alone for the poor showing of the team as if the likes of Jadeja and Ishant are match winners? If anyone is a liability to the team, first one is Ishant Sharma. No other team in the world would play him; not even, Ireland or Zimbabwe. Why is Rohit spared? Does he on current form deserve a place? Same holds good for a Raina or Dhawan. So, do not find scapegoats to protect a few from the axe. If I have the decision making rights, I'd drop Rohit and ask Ashwin to open with Shikar. Drop Ishant and bring in any other seamer in his place. None could do any worse than him. While he's still hailed for his move of asking Joginder to bowl the last over in the T20 world cup before many years, Mr. MSD has committed lots and lots of false moves too because of which the team suffered and none pinpoints any of them. He has become so powerful now. How else one can justify useless Jaddu being retained by the CSK? What has he done in last year's IPL? MSD influences quite a lot of decisions these days and it's time to check it. Bring in Dinesh Karthik and Saha for atleast one form of the game and rest MSD for the sake of the team and for the sake of controlling MSD, the dictator of sorts these days...

Dhoni adamant nature is causing us defeat...
by Punit Sharma on Jan 23, 2014 06:49 PM

Dhoni never drops a player who has catched his attention initially ...like R. Jadeja..he is totally flop from the African tour but Dhoni doesn't matter o give chance to other player like Y. Pathan or I. Pathan..or any other...same is the case with Ashwwin as well....So.Dhoni nature is the main cuase of our defeat....

Need to pick gud fast bowlers
by Punit Sharma on Jan 23, 2014 06:45 PM

Dhoni is having some favourites in the team hich he carries in every match whether India lose or win...India has only two best fastbowlers in the team suitable for theses conditions...Umesh Yadav which Dhoni didn't allow to play n Africa (one of the main reasons for loosing) and other one is Varun Aaron..

India under Dhoni Abroad chase
by bhujanga subannachar on Jan 23, 2014 06:09 PM

Dhoni's team performance is excellent on domestic grounds. On foreign soil except few daring and talented no body performs including Dhoni himself. If IIM has made subject for leadership qualities towards his success in domestic grounds how about introducing few more lessons towards non performance on soils abroad. IIMs also listened to corrupt and nonsense leaderships like Laloos. Such business is tought in our Schools for business. Dhoni's leadership is flattered much more than it deserves. We must understand the team must perform in Cricket game captaincy on most of the occasions is the question of balanced judgement but should not be flattered as great leadership. Dhoni is definitely not good talented team builder like Late Mansur Ali Khan Patuadi , Late M L Jaisimha, Ganguly or Dravid VVS Laman Dilip Vengsarkar Bisen singh Bedi or Venkata Raghavan. He lucky to seen many Victories on domestic grounds not out shear leadership abilities. He is also an ordinary captain and good cricketer with some luck but not too great as flattered by our media.

SCRAP D/L METHOD

Instead they should see how many runs the team batting first had made in those many overs to be played by the second team.

Main thing is the pitches do not help turning at square from first ball .Next the pitches are not dead where you can have a smoke and then hit the ball .
