Turning_track Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) Nobody is telling that MSD can't hit sixes, its his single taking ability at will which has taken a beating. Previously he used to hit a six or a four, take a few singles or convert it into doubles. But now when he is getting beaten by Santner or a Milne/Munro, it hurts the team. That too when it is four down and your skipper needs help from the other end. If instead of Dhoni had it been Pandey or Jadhav, I bet Kohli would've been furious for not rotating strike hurling MC BC at his partners. In ODIs,Dhoni was coming down the track and he was doing tuk-tuk against Santner, without even taking a single. It was so ugly. Nobody is absolving the other players, there are so many chinks in this limited overs Indian side. Top 3 and Pandya is all our batting. Any opposition who plays against this Indian LOI side can guess how our approach will be when we are batting. We didn't learn our lessons in 2014 t20 final, when a superstar with a strike rate of 50 was struggling to even middle the ball. Its more than 3 and a half years now, the only change now is atm we have got decent death bowlers. Indians are conservative in their approach who never think out of the box. We can't have a Kaluwitharana/Jayasuriya bludgeoning the oppositon in fielding restriction overs. Sehwag was an exception though Edited November 5, 2017 by Turning_track Laaloo, asterix, puneet28 and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment

So any young player has to come in you want other players to make way while Dhoni continues to with his mediocre batting?

King Tendulkar Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Was on payroll of BCCI which srini have him to back srini agendas such as always back his franchise skipper in dhoni maybe life time deal lol or Sunny banking on srini getting hot seat again and so ££ come in . Or maybe him and msd have private understanding now cringe worthy stuff . Criticised pandya for one dismissal more in one article then has criticised dhoni in his whole career .
