I guess inclusion of these seniors - M/s Sehwag and Gambhir, etc., would not have brought out any other result. Until and unless the players play with true commitment, we are not going to do any better. On Indian soils, the wickets are tailor-made for them so they win. That is a fact. We can understand if we lose a match. but we cannot accept losing matches miserably without putting up fight ... see how NZ chased a total of around 300 in the 4th ODI... that's the spirit....
It was a great opportunity for our players to lean and prepare for the next World Cup. They learnt a lot from SA tour and now from NZ tour as well. A tour without any win and humiliating defeats... can we expect a turnaround by the time of World Cup ??? Whatever it is, the only thing I feel is that our players really really lack commitment.
JUST I think with this team, India can do wodners,but nit is just bad luck.So what if Ashwin,Raina,Ishant do not perform and Ashwin the indispensable allrounder takes just one wicket in the series and jadeja clicks once i a while and raina is learning fast for the lt___years,rohit has got chance i the team after ______years.Good Binny got one over to prove his worth.
trust this whitewash at New Zealand would have given you a jolt, which is doubtful because you are so obsessed with your ideas and moreover your ego at times controls your decisions.
The final result is a clear indication of your poor decision making and/or bias/soft corner for few players. Why did you play Ashwin in all the 5 ODIs? He took only 1 wicket and was hammered all over the park. He scored only in 1 game & we know he is an opening batsman for TN team. Do you still support him? Why wasn't Amit Mishra given a chance? Are you scared that if Mishra had performed then you will have to ask Ashwin to sit outside? Have you put the player ahead of the interest of the team? WOuld you disagree that out of form Bhajji would be better then present days Ashwin both with bat and ball?
Jadeja another over rated player who was played in all the 5 ODIs & what was his contribution? Scores in 2 games and hardly any wicket? Why was IShwar Pandey not given a chance? Why did you under bowl Stuart Binny in the only game that he played?
Haven't you lost confidence in your bowlers? because you have mostly preferred to chase rather then putting the target on the score board, why?
You have let cricket lovers down, yes or no? You have caused the down slide in the team, yes or no?
We are very hurt to see the present scene and blame you for it because you are the captain of the team.

mr dhoni, resign on moral ground because u have insulted senior players like sehwag & gambir just for failing on few matches,though they had the experience & confidence to come back strongly & they have proved it before.Now let us what u will do with your chamchas who failed miserably in last 7-10 matches.u with sandeep patil & srini to blame for this shame .Srikanth had given good team to u but u guys commercialized with it.u r fit to lead only in sub-continent pitches.......shameless guy

Dhoni, unfortunately a coward captain who cannot bat first.Idiot like Ravi Shastri only supports his captaincy. We need Kohli as captain and Dhoni as a batsman only, not skipper.
