Shouldn't Dhoni also resign as test captain ?


Recommended Posts

With the way we batted and bowled, most captains (chosen from within Team India) would have gone at least 6-0. :giggle: It's okay to DROP Dhoni based on his overseas performances, but it's unfair to make him the scapegoat for the failures.
Based on that, sehwag and Gambhir should also be dropped. Atleast he was better than those 2 combined!

Waah. TINA at it's best!!
TINA is always part and parcel of sports. You only think of replacing a proven player if his replacement is any good. I can hope Gambhir/Sehwag to click twice in 3 Tests, but I cannot hope Mukund/Rahane to click even once in 3 Tests (based on their overseas performances).

He's been a sitting duck for quite long now, outside the SC.

But till a new player shows some grit and determination, they'll not be replaced. Apart from the 100 at a tour game, Mukund has done zilch. The way Gambhir scored consistently to replace Jaffer, someone has to do the same to replace Gauti/Sehwag.

Dhoni still did better than Sehwag, Gauti, Laxman and Raina despite being only a keeper-batsman whereas others were in the team as "specialist" batsmen. Any other captain from the world would not have done any better than him with the bowling resources we had and with the way the batsmen were constantly falling.
