heard he has told selectors not to consider him for test cricket

time for rahane to do the same for LOI

Dhoni in T20s as well. 

 

You forgot to add that

[Vilander]

Finally it has dawned on him, he now needs to just focus on flat indian wickets..make sure every team that tours India shudders to see him walk in..obliterate them..

 

go hitman

Pujara actually, he tries to get all macho with his batting and running between the wickets to impress our kaptaan and cheerleader.

[Garuda]

He doesnt say hes done with test cricket. I expect him to play 5 tests in the england series where he can cahnge the game in a session

He couldn't come to this conclusion 5 months earlier? Maggi over Rahane in the 2 live rubbers in SA , this is Kohli's counter to Unadkat/RP Singh/Vinay Kumar type decisions of Captain Cool.

That saf tour prompted the thought in him 

[The Dark Horse]

Phew. Thanks Rohit. Kohli would still select him

[Lala2790]

Rohit looks like he's spent half his career eating at McDonalds 

[Stradlater]

To think that this fat f**k was anywhere near our test team.

And look at the nerve of this guy talkin about this nonchalantly. Garbage player

lmao.....i ain't a sachin fan, he should have retired after 2011 world cup.......funny is that , all the sambar guys ,defend dhoni just coz of one reason that he plays for csk...lmao, retarded pans of thaila....did u forget that tour of aus,eng,saf,nz from  2012-2014 of series defeats ...where dhoni's captaincy was soooo defensive and uninspiring...

i sometimes wonder, if Dhoni chamchas have the balls to accept dhoni's negative contribution towards  indian test cricket...also who can forget that dhoni lied to supreme court for not knowing meiyappan??? open ur eyes ,kiddo.

most of the south indians suffer from hero-worshipping.

They do though. We all accept Dhoni was a poor overseas test skipper. P.S - Overseas tests only, he is still the most successful test captain in India. He had a brilliant start to his test captaincy career where his team was unbeaten for 1st 3 years, albeit all at home. Then from 2011 Eng tour everything changed. Blame also must also go to the ageing players who had already past their prime by then but MSD being a captain had to take the share of blame. And we all accept that.

 

Its actually the other way round in ICF. Because of test failures, people tend to forget his accomplishments in shorter format. People here tend to deny his enormous contribution to Indian cricket and do not give him due credit. He has got India every possible trophies out there, no captain in Asia has done that. I mean 3 ICC trophies in 8 years is a quite a decent performance, isn't it? As a batsman, he is no mug either. Avg 50+ after 300 odd games and played one of the greatest world cup final innings. Most successful captain in IPL, still at this age he is taking his team to victory by beating all current skippers.

 

You got to give credit where its due. He was not winning those trophies for Pakistan, he was doing those for us only, isn't it?

What’s up with the stereotype?

 

Amitabh Bacchan,Govinda all won LS seats  because people voted for them for being cinema 

Stars....Mayawati has statues all over UP...will you walk out of 90% of Maharashtra if you say something against Bal Thackeray? Most states vote for leaders who are   cult of personality....every state has atleast one actor from that region who is a movie star.

 

Even though I agree with most of your post why bring region and stereotype  into it?

We already are on the same page he was a poor test captain,so no arguing that

 

ok fair enough he won the WT20 in 2007,he got kicked out in the first round in 2009,2010,2012.....How many captains have lasted so many failures?  was it justified for him to go on and on and on despute failures in that format-so now that is 2/3 formats where he was a failure.

 

Now coming to ODI cricket-Dhoni is a serviceable player in this format no doubt unlike the other 2 formats. I believe no one had a problem with him captaining in 2015 WC  as the captain of the defending champions.

 

I have said many times before I was a big fan of Dhoni the player till 2011(never rated his captaincy but thought he was a lucky mascot) .

 

 Dhoni has cost us a lot more matches than he has won in recent times......His finishing comes in games where any half decent player can do the same in easy situations....Can you remind me when was the last time Dhoni won a match for us from a position where the game was lost? the only 1 I can remember was that England game with partnership from Yuvi another guy who was over the hill at that point.

 

Dhoni the keeper is also over-rated, he is good when he keeps to spinners but bang average to pace bowlers.

 

He gets the hate because a)because of this cringe-worthy hype...I mean what kind of a narcissist you have to be to produce your own biopic  b) There are better alternatives C) He has brought in a lot of politics,favoritism into the game that has undone the hard work of the previous generation
