young Indian talent. While other franchises gave chance to players like Chahal, Sanju Samson, Akshar Patel, Karanveer, etc, the most useless selfish captain of CSK never tried Baba Aparajith. This Gamandi Dhoni was taught a lovely lesson by Kings XI Punjab by thrashing them thrice. Shameless fellow keeps blaming his team mates
Players like Yuvraj/Sehwag bat opposition out of the game where as Dhoni needs someone like Sehwag's/Yuvraj/Raina's up the order setup good run rate so that it has given flexibility to Dhoni to BAT himself in and take time.
Best finishing ability of Dhoni were due to the facts that rest of the team of Dhoni's peak time were all AGRESSIVE CRICKETERS who maintain good run rate so Dhoni can sleepwalk to the victory....doubt check the batting line-ups during Dhoni's time
Just look at Batsman other than Dhoni you will agree each one of them are capabable of changing gears at will and these poor guys play for the team and in hurry to get good run rate they play more shots (more risks) so they might not maintain good averages but look at thir strike rate.... Dhoni on other hand having already setup good run rate by other team mates...he takes his time wisely and cuts down all the risky shots and finallly finishes the games
this means Dhoni needs someone at the top to setup the game
Hypocracy of Dhoni at his BEST as he often misuses his captaincy to pick wrong team and hide himself during DEFEATS.......
If you use sense its easy to understand his pattern 1. Comes down the order against quality pace bowlers & pace friendly pitches 2. Earlier used to promote to 3rd or 4th positions while playing against spin attacks and sub-continent pitches 3. How can any one justify or name him best finisher...think twice he needs some one at the TOP to set-up good run rate and give him decent run rate to go about so that he will come and finish............its not the case with match winners (Yuvraj/Sehwag) they setup match singlehandedly batting opposition out of the equation
I think we should now stop playing International Cricket. Let players only play IPL. And we can concentrate on other sports, like Hockety, Football, Invest money on them. Poor hockey players. Wish they could have something like this IPL. They must be regretting why they become Hoceky players they should have played Cricket. Poor India
1.He took bowling after winning toss knowing that he does not have a bowler who can win matches. 2.His keeping is very poor infact he has left most of the catches and byes left by him was more than runs he scored. 3.Calling himself the best finisher and coming very late to bat is again his decision. 4.He is involved in making the image of Jaddu and Mohit Sharma. 5.May be time has come for CSK to release him from contract.

Coach Fleming has no strategy for a big game, a big total as yesterday. He was useless as NZ captain and is useless as CSK coach. He just sits there with his short shorts. If you have some sense as a player and coach, you would have Dhoni to come in and join Raina at this crucial game. And Raina would have had his fastest 100 ever.
CSK is the only IPL team with all 11 players having played international cricket. Unlike other teams, especially RR under Dravid which regularly bring in fresh untried talent, CSK provides no openings to fresh talent. Despite this CSK has failed to reach finals this year.
