Tactically yes probably but even then there is no obvious candidate. But name me a player who sets an example as a sportsman who can not only inspire his own team with performances but also inspire younger generation with his fitness? express bowling 1 Link to comment

Probably tells kohli very over to have a leg slip in . Kohli showed in tests no need for sage dhoni lol looks like some more bizzare pr attempt by Kohli yes op never mentioned ipl but others in this thread have hence comment speedheat 1 Link to comment

asterix Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Kohli is very lucky that Dhoni is hanging around. He completely depends on Dhoni for most of the infield decisions. There’s a possibility that he takes Dhoni’s advice in team selections too. Kohli is a poor LOI captain and will always be. It’s unfortunate for new players who are waiting to come in the team that the captain is depending heavily on a has been player. Dhoni is enjoying this stint similar to the one enjoyed by Sonia Gandhi during the UPA rule. All good things will be credited to him and bad things to Kohli... mishra and randomGuy 2 Link to comment
asterix Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 It’s unfortunate that the IPL marketing is directing the continuation of Dhoni in the Indian T20 team... 2 of the regular IPL losers are controlling the fate of Indian T20 team where as the proven winner Rohit has no say at all. Unfortunately Kohli politics will not allow Rohit to lead the Indian T20 team even after being the biggest RCB loser captain. Has no clues of captaining in LOIs...

Jimmy Cliff Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 I don't get this. Tendulkar and Dravid played one T20 each for India but continued to play IPL until 2013. Surely Dhoni can do the same. Why is it essential for Dhoni to be a part of the Indian T20 side for IPL. CSK would pretty much have him regardless. Laaloo 1 Link to comment
speedheat Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 This should be the biggest hypocrisy by the great dhoni, he gave up captaincy stating split captaincy don't work and now splitting it in a live international match if he is the man of his words he should just say "heyyy split captaincy don't work get lost" whenever Kohli comes to him except for drs. SUMO, mishra and Laaloo 3 Link to comment
