Who is he? The seniormost, estalished player in the Indian side? Is this 'report' a result of some Agent, or Sports Management Agency's effort to get Shikhar Dhawan coverage?
Anderson abused and pushed Jadeja and Jadeja reacted. This is as per Dhoni. India lodged complaint against Anderson. England retaliated by lodging complaint against Jadeja as after thought. Instead of settling the issue against Anderson, ICC took up the second case first just before the start of the 3rd test. Is it not a racial step by ICC?

Agreed , its nothing new , England and Australian teams are known for this . this is where I always rated Ganguly as best captain abroad ,fight aggression with aggression. From 79 to 2007 , we always played good cricket in England, under Dhoni its looks very ordinary
India has 6 wickets in hand & have to score 333 runs in 90 overs @ 3.7 runs/over. First of all, we should try for victory, if not, then we should definately go for a draw, as India is already 1-0 up in this seris.
Dhawan expects a good partnership from the two batsmen at the crease. Why is he depending upon other batsmen? Why he did not bat himself to take up the Indian challenge to the Brits door? Dhawan is a failure in England. Leaving seven catches in the first innings of England is killing us. The slip fielders were standing with their hands on knees. How can they jump or dive to take catches with that posture?
Even if I cheer for India, but still feel India deserves to loose this match. The selection, the way Jadeja give the initial great advantage to Cook that built up the huge score, the was Indian slip fielders are acting on field, and finally Dhoni's lack of Test cricket understanding makes it all. Infact the more India looses test matches, the better are the chances of having a new captain tat could understand test cricket at-least. Until Dhonis stays in test team and captain, India#s chances are very very bleak and it gets frustrating to see his wrong selection all the time. Dhoni has some grudge against Aaron, Ojha who can take wickets and win matches.

Very true said. India playing test match on almost flat track without specailist spinner is a joke.How come old greats keeping mum on this funniest thing. We have 8 batsman Kumar i.e. 9 batsman..u can not imagine in dream also. Rest 2 bowlers which has one newcomer.Time for a fresh thought in TEST team is requirment now. Gambhir,Bhajji should be in playing 11 in TEST match.But Dhoni due to his personal ego and issues not considering both which is harming indian ckt. This Eng team lost 9 out of 10 (Srilanka too defeated them) should have not even half of indian team, but they are fighting and worst is winning this test match . Dhoni can continue in ODI,T2-0 and IPL Masala ckt.

you hit the nail on the head!! Firstt problem: Dhoni comes across as a poor captain, poor keeper and poor test batsman Second problem: he is selecting poor players: Jadeja shouldnt be in the team. We have only 2 proper bowlers and another 2 half bowlers....
