Bumper Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 When Yuvraj Singh and Mahendra Singh Dhoni get together against Pakistan, it invariably means bad news for them. The 100-run stand between the two, off just 92 balls, is their fourth in seven innings versus Pakistan, against whom they average 99.80 per partnership - the partnership sequence reads 20, 102 not out, 146 not out, 6, 105, 20 and 100. These two have managed to stitch together a match winning partnership in 4 out of 7 attempts. Not bad, eh! Link to comment
Lurker Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Not bad at all. Furthermore Yuvraj averages 45 against Pakistan and 66 in matches won. Dhoni averages 54 and 94.6 in matches won against Pakistan. I daresay these two gents have been the dominant figure against Pakistan in the last 20 off LOIs. Link to comment
PaiN_KiLLeR Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 That partnership was simply brilliant. Initially they tried to pick singles off the Pakistani spinners by playing them in the gaps, but it wasn't working. They weren't able to pick more than 3-4 runs an over, which was much lesser than what was required at that stage. Yuvi-MSD then switched to plan B with some calculated hitting which saw them smash 4 sixes of the next 3 overs!. THat partnership won us the match. Link to comment

Cricketics Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 pakistaniz can't stand this pair.. they fear alot whenever they hear aobut Yuvi-Dhoni playing well.. i have seen lot of pakiz talking about Yuvi-Dhoni as a concern for pak bowlers... even if u go around on other boardz specifically pakistani forums.. u would note that thing.. it was the Hutch Cup, the 06 5 match odi series in which pak was humiliated by both of these playerz...

Gambit Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 One Pak bowler after another has been summarily dismissed by these two. Actor and co probably wake up with a sweat in the middle of the night in fear of the further pain these two have in store for them. Link to comment
Ram Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 They are deadly duo. Unlike many successful partnerships, both of them are power hitters which is really an asset. Link to comment
sm332 Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 i hope these two also come to grips with Oz surfaces since we will need them big time to have any level of success in the ODIs there Link to comment
Lurker Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Another 100 partnership between the duo. Pakistanis must be hating the sight of Dhoni-Yuvraj at the crease :hatsoff: Link to comment

beetle Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 The openers have played a major role in this series win. Let's not forget them.Poor gambhir got forgotten even during the 20/20 . Dhoni also needs to give credit to other achievers and not just spend all his time with just uv this and that. Link to comment
Tugga Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 The openers have played a major role in this series win. Let's not forget them.Poor gambhir got forgotten even during the 20/20 . Dhoni also needs to give credit to other achievers and not just spend all his time with just uv this and that. maybe Yuvraj is like how steve waugh described Warne...one who has 2 b constantly extolled and made believe that he is the most important guy in the team...!!! just 2 cushion Yuvraj's ego, which i m sure is still smarting from being overlooked for captaincy..!!!

beetle Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 But I am sure others are looking for some credit for the victories.... .....it's a team game... Link to comment
Predator_05 Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Yuvraj was key. He walked in after India had lost two wickets in the blink of an eye. Another wicket at that stage, and the match could have turned in Pakistan's favor. Yuvraj didn't flinch and did what he does best - calmly finishing yet another match for India. Link to comment
