vvvslaxman Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 He takes singles like Kohli, hits in between like Dhoni. That is why his ODI strike rate is 99. velu and sandeep 2 Link to comment

Vilander Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Pandey learnt more than half his batting from dhoni. Dhoni is not even half done he still is im scheme of things. Whats with indian cricket team and halfs ? express bowling 1 Link to comment
SK_IH Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 1 hour ago, sandeep said: Most 'clutch' player to ever bat for India in ODIs. Ever. All batsmen can learn from him. Its not about his technique, or his sharply declining execution skills. Its about the mental aspect of batting. But the anti-Dhoni circle-jerk's agenda-driven posting won't let you accept this. i guess i have to agree with you,greatest odi batsman who knew what it means to build up an odi innings, circa 2008-2013, i used to say he did it again.first time i noticed he is more brains than brawns was a game against lank at pune after the famous 183 match ,he chased 70-80 runs along with raina with just rotating the strike mostly and then finished it off with consecutive sixes sandeep 1 Link to comment
Khota Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 1 hour ago, sandeep said: Not sure if you were following Indian cricket in the 2006-2012 timeframe. What are Dhoni's obvious flaws today - strike-rate, boundary hitting, inability to get going quickly when he first starts batting - he was basically all-world in all those respects back then. There's a reason his ODI batting numbers are right up there, even if you take out his huge number of not-outs. And apart from his big-hitting, consistent batting, and related statistical achievements. Dhoni's temperament in pressure situations and his tendency to come through was something I haven't seen in Indian cricket in 30 years. Its almost tragic to watch him bat these days - all of his strengths have slowly and steadily atrophied into weaknesses. Dhoni in my opinion is very impulsive. I lost faith in this person the day he started bowling himself and asked Dravid to keep in England. That was the day I would have recalled him back pronto. He did fine but behind that outward cool demeanor was very poor decision making. His so called clutch innings are very debatable. Look at IPL and he is barely OK not now but for last 5 seasons.

Dhoni's never been a great T20 bat, especially for India. But ODIs? An ATG. It's a matter of months before he retires IMO. Vilander 1 Link to comment
Vilander Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 This means pandey wants dhonis position in the lineup once he retires. Nothing else. Link to comment

It does not help the cause when someone like Shastri who is the biggest sifaarshi in the world comes out yesterday and makes a statement that Dhoni has not peaked yet. I swear I can be a better coach than this moron Shastri. Link to comment
