In seaming conditions...Dhoni is a better bat than Kohli

[rkt.india]

Dhoni does not have face new ball or bat up in the order. he does not have to face the same conditions as someone opening or at batting at 3 faces.

still outscored 4/5/6

Point is, Every other team has number 6, but nones performance dwarf so much the rest.

 

Some how only in case of Dhoni, number 6 should score more by coming at number 3 or 4.

 

So gurus, what you are traying to say? Dhoni is not best number 6 in world?

Or our number 3,4,5 are not better than Dhoni?

Or both?

to judge who is better is seaming/swinging conditions...think of this:

 

WHO WOULD YOU PICK OPENING THE INNINGS IN SEAMING/SWINGING CONDITIONS? DHONI OR KOHLI?

 

I would pick Kohli 10/10 times. I rest my case.

This is why dhoni has multiple tons in tests outside Asia . Has courage to face extreme bowlers in alien conditions . When faced with such conditions he stands up to be counted . He has proved this time and again . As shown by his 20 odd overseas tons

 

o wait just checked his record . Zero test tons outside Asia and even Saha has one . Must have used stats guru wrong , my mistake , apologies

Did you not see how he neutralized the threat of Thisara Perera yesterday so that Kuldeep can survive against trundlers like Lakmal and Pradeep?

Sachin chamchas salty as always LOL

it was an inconsequential knock. better to look instead at Dhoni's performance during our whitewash in eng, where he played some gutsy innings.

Dhoni has no technique or what we call poor technique...but has a heart of steel, temperament, will to fight, analyzing everything on the go...no wonder everyone who has played cricket keep on talking about his super mind and senses of how to handle the situation...others are too one track in their thinking and hence they end shitting when situation is different from usual...

I just feel glad that we saw someone like Dhoni play cricket for our team...great player to have in the team. 

he playes with soft hands and goes to pitch thats technique too. esp against swinging ball.
