Pakistan never won against India in the World cup and India never won against South Africa. Lets wait for the match against South Africa. Lets us see how good Dhoni is as a Captain and Kohli is as a Batsman!

Is Dhoni the only player playing today? He holds an average strike rate of 175 in the last 5 overs (stats). Tell me anyone from India who can replace him.
Today during commentary when Pakistan was on the verge of yet another defeat:
Harsha Bhogle to Sourav Ganguly: "What was the difference between India and Pakistan today?"
Sourav Ganguly: "India's ability to handle pressure."
Harsha Bhogle: "Why do you think India can handle pressure better than Pakistan?"
Sourav Ganguly: "The reason is simple. It's because of MS DHONI. It's because of his leadership in big matches which helps the Indian team to calm down in pressure situation."
People really going bonkers to this win!!! Yes, a win looks and feels good, more when it is against Pakistan.
But what is the reality? Any guesses? Well, the Pakis hardly had any teeth in their main department ie. bowling attack. No? Their frontline bowling attack was missing. I am told that most ones had to be dropped due to injury issues. With no bowling attack, India had a free run to score .... Lets get such results against the English, South Africa and Australia. That would be the true test!!!!!
Indian captain shows his wise decision during allotment of bowling as per the situation...... & kohli played very nice game....India Zindabaad... best of luck....
