Trust Dhoni to do differently from conventional wisdom and get away too! After the toss it was a bit of a surprise if not shock the dropping of Amit Mishra after his good performance in the previous match! Similarly inclusion of Axar Patel too was a big surprise given he was looking low on confidence. Virtually a national debate had ensued before start of the game questioning Dhoni's decision but he pulled it off for a memorable win proving all wrong! While Mishra's absence was not felt Axar Patel on the other hand proved a match winner with his 3 crucial wickets! While myself a big fan of Axar Patel for his tight line & length bowling but Dhoni's explanation about Axar's batting ability is not very convincing given that his average in international matches is in single digit. Dhoni's reluctance to give the debut to young Gurukeerat with excellent domestic records both with bat and ball is also puzzling. From his talks the impression one gets is he could be saving the No 7 spot for his close confidant Ravindra Jadeja who has been doing well recently in the domestic circuit. Only time will tell what is in Dhoni’s mind. Virat at no.3 or 4 as also Dhoni’s own position up the order is again a widely debated point where he alone seems to have a stand totally different from majority view. Anyway as the captain he is the best judge and as long as he delivers no one should have any issue.
for next match to finish.it is best due to 3 spinner. and also 2 spacer.also raina. it is best technique. otherwise defeat south africa is vital.opening will be rohit shram & rahane. it is final . for best technique to defeat south africa.
Kohli is sabotaging the series.A man in a hurry at the cost of the dignity of the Country and immotions of cricket lovers.Shashtri should set him right to mend his gimmicks.
After entering Ravi Sastri in Indian team... Koholi is playing poor cricket under Dhoni... So kicked out both Sastri & koholi...there is no bright future if both continue in Indian Cricket... both playing nasty politics

Kohli is a brilliant cricketer full of passion...he got out in last innings due to unfortunate mix up for which both rehane & kohli r responsible...till then he was playing well............

I am totally agree with this. Let Dhoni take his own decisions. Interfering shatrism is the hurdle to indian cricket.

He should be dropped. He is not performing under Dhoni's leadership. He doesn't want to. So we are short of one batsman in the top and its leading poor performance on the team as a whole and we are loosing. He wanted India to loose and bad name to Dhoni, so that he could be kicked out of team / captaincy so that he can become captain. Before that situation catch up Virat should be kicked out for poor performance.

Did Kholi performed last world cup in australia? Even Raina was doing well, what contribution from Kholi for the last 15 matches. Drop KHOLI for One day, let him play TEST matches. Let him make politics in TEST match.
...A Great Innings Played By The Captain. I Must Say One Of His Finest In His Career. All Round Display Of Batting , Wicket-Keeping & TeamLeading. That Crucial 92, 3 Catches & Not 1 But Every Indian Was Stumped Yesterday !
