Popular Post vvvslaxman Posted May 11, 2018 Popular Post Posted May 11, 2018 Yes. He is the only captain in this IPL who threw his bowlers under the bus. How come Kane williamson who probably doesn't know Hindi as well is marshalling his limited resources. He has to realize under his captaincy he has always struggles against chasing sides while defending totals on pitches that does not help spinners. Only place where his Dhoniconda comes into play are pitches that helps spinners. Otherwise no matter what bowlers he has, he struggles to defend totals. cricbuz, UrmiSinhaRay, Unstable Joe and 10 others 3 2 8

vvvslaxman Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 Poor Bravo. He paid some highest complements to Dhoni prior to this IPL edition. Because of him they even won the first game. I thought CSK would be wooden spoon winner. Switchblade, beetle and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1 1

Temujin Khaghan Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 // We were supposed to bowl one particular length. The bowlers were instructed what to bowl: back of a length. They could not execute. // when msd chooses to rant on his bowlers, he makes them look like nincompoops who cannot execute even basic stuff whereas virat chooses to praise opposition's bowlers to the sky, to bring some shame to his bowlers... i guess UrmiSinhaRay, beetle and Under_Score 1 2

Popular Post asterix Posted May 11, 2018 Popular Post Posted May 11, 2018 He even dedicated his MoM award to MS. Bravo experiencing first time how Dhoni used to and has been treating bowlers as captain... I mean Dhoni has actually made his career mistreating his bowlers. I can recall so many frustrating years of him treating badly those bowlers who fell off his radar...The Bozo actually name calls and humiliates his own bowlers in public... The git very rarely takes the blame on himself. There’s a reason why he gets so much of hate and this hate has built up over the years after watching him treating very badly his own bowlers and players... beetle, Unstable Joe, Detonator and 7 others 2 8
The Dark Horse Posted May 12, 2018 Posted May 12, 2018 This has happened before with CSK but he has been smart not to say the same with the Indian team. Once after Balaji and co. were taken apart, he said "This is the worst bowling performance I've seen in my life". That's the worst statement by a captain about his teammates. asterix, Gollum, Mosher and 2 others 1 4
rkt.india Posted May 12, 2018 Posted May 12, 2018 (edited) The problem with Dhoni is he wants bowlers to do what he wants rather than let them do what they want to do. Edited May 12, 2018 by rkt.india Unstable Joe, adi B, beetle and 6 others 2 2 5
asterix Posted May 12, 2018 Posted May 12, 2018 Have you ever heard Rohit Sharma throwing his bowlers under the bus publicly? The guy too has lost many matches but has won more trophies than Dhoni in IPL/CL combined. This year too his team has struggled throughout however never seen him bitching about his bowlers and talking about plans and execution BS...Always found him taking collective blame for losses. Yes he's struggled with his form. But I find him more composed than Dhoni. Imagine what would've Dhoni done if his team lost 5-6 matches in row... The less I talk about another captain, Kohli the better...And no I'm not saying that Rohit is any better captain at international level as currently he might struggle to deserve a place as player in the team...

asterix Posted May 12, 2018 Posted May 12, 2018 He has a big fat ego ,any one who doesn't listen to him he will throw under the bus,one of the most negative captains a bowler can have .Ideally you want to avoid playing under him ,but if you do play t20s, just bowl slow wide balls ,just practice it in the nests and then unkle will be happy.Even rcb pace attack has done well in spite of all their troubles.Dadu has a bad habit of blaming bowlers... He expects too much from his bowlers in T20 matches...Thank goodness Bhumrah, Bhuvi etc not playing under him...Seen the match recording again. The bowlers haven’t bowled badly and has even bowled short of good length (his plan) and not “executed” badly. It was brilliant batting by Butler and old men fielding...He says the score was above par (lying through his teeth) & can’t expect any better fielding from this old age team... So effectively giving clean chit to his batting and old men fielding...I pity the bowlers in his team... No wonder the try to suck up to him... but he uses them and throws them under the bus.., Unstable Joe, beetle, Laaloo and 1 other 4

Chris Gayle, Kane Williamson and Dhawan would be wishing the opponent captains consider 185 as above par. Which era is he playing in. 1990's? Problem is lot of players live in past. What was good then is considered good today. No wonder some teams are found short of runs at end of innings. Edited May 12, 2018 by Straight Drive beetle, Gollum, asterix and 1 other 1 3

I think only Zak put him in his place. As long as Zak was in the team he set his own field and also the field of the other pace bowlers. Trouble with fast bowling tactics started when Zak retired... sergio04, Gollum, Sean Bradley and 1 other 1 3
