The Outsider 181 Report post Posted May 21, 2008 The only captain who has stood out from the crowd has been Warne. He had a really rag tag, incosistent team to start off with but their team has played brilliant cricket and he has also made some really bold moves which have come off. As far as the others - Yuvraj, Dhoni, Tendulkar etc.- are concerned they've been reasonably good but showing nothing out of the ordinary as captains except for some blind followers.

Yuvraj4Captaincy 11 Report post Posted May 21, 2008 Yuvi has been exceptional. Just liek Warnies boys, no one was putting their money on Punjab to enter the semis in IPL. Just visit the articles prior to the start of the ipl on diff websites and the polls and threads on this forum. Its just warnie is a big legend thus more attn on him but Yuvi has been exceptional.

Yuvraj4Captaincy 11 Report post Posted May 21, 2008 Yuvi hasn't showed any outrageously brilliant tactical nous so far but his team is winning and that is what counts at the end of the day. Punjab under Yuvi have shown character to clinch a semi spot after having been thrashed in their first two games. Yuvi is bound to fire sooner rather than later. After all this isn't test cricket. lol...your most exciting team got kicked out long time ago..Must be really boring for you...lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
