Even though I agree with your sentiment ,I don’t agree players treating it as fun cricket or not taking it seriously after they make millions of $$$ from it. Doesn’t reflect well on them as professionals.... I would consider that as being cheated as much as I feel cheated when the team doesn’t take international cricket seriously and get rolled over overseas. Link to comment
maniac Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 I don’t know what is funnier CSK fans celebrating Dhoni the T20 player or RCB fans cheering for Kohli the captain both have screwed them over countless time. #MI rules #captain Rozilla ps:greatest team ever Sean Bradley and Laaloo 1 1 Link to comment

I agree with you , these guys are professionals and have personal pride in playing. What it does do is give lower ranked players the opportunity to earn decent amount of money for 6 weeks work as well as stars earning large amounts I do believe it's fun for the spectator but I hope it stays that way for them and does not become the be all and end all Link to comment

Ponting captained Australia in 2 world t20s. I know that may not be adequate sample size for you, but not everybody is as blessed as Dhoni Saab to be granted 6 attempts!

I am not. I don't usually judge anything in IPL. As I said before, he is a pretty good test captain on the field. He can't get the damn basics playing xi right. That's the unfortunate part. Odis- sorry can't judge him until dhoni is out of the picture as you can't really tell who is making the decisions. speedheat 1 Link to comment
Gollum Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Love Kohli the batsman but his captaincy, selection, thought process and Bunty Sajdeh have pissed me off. My criticism of Kohli is mostly non batting related. Difference between Kohli/SRT fans and Dhoni fans is that the former won't hesitate to criticize their hero if they feel team's interest is being harmed. Dhoni fans are so shameless that they won't ever criticize their idol even if Team India is being screwed over. Laaloo and velu 2 Link to comment
