Whatever Dhoni may say his body language when he came to bat today was pathetic. It looked like he had already decided that this match also would be lost. The Required run rate which was 6.12 or so when he came to bat rose to 8.52, which shows his contribution. But for the determined show put up by Pandey, it would have been a whitewash.
Pandey deserves all the credit for today's victory. I do not what is wrong with Dhoni His body language when he came to bat today was pathetic.

Indian team can win matches only when they stop selecting players based on whims and fancies of captain and selectors. Today, selection is done by selectors & captains wherein they have no explanation for selecting or for dropping players, which reeks of corruption, nepotism, shamelessness, dirty attitudes and selfishness.

Why can't selection be based on a ratings system designed to rate performance of players in various conditions that would finally lead to selection of top rated players for appropriate matches? Top performers get sidelined and 3rd class players get selected if they are close to selectors/captains or businesses that these crooks hol
