No one knows better than Dhoni about field placements, angles etc. Saves about 30 runs a game with that. Add another 50 runs through super fast stumpings. And another 40 runs by giving advice to captain on when to make bowling changes and when to take DRS. Contribution even before batting is well over 100 runs Let's do the math 30 + 40 + 50 = 120 runs Opposition purposely score 100 runs less because they know dhoni and his minions are occupying the middle order. We also end up 100 runs short because we pick players who make dhoni look good. So if you add all that up, thalaivas tally comes up to - 120. That's a big net negative. And not to forget our young players have to constantly come up with ways to praise thalaiva so it also affects their performance.

putrevus Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 He is not good enough to play as a keeper , how will he justify his role just as a batsman.He is already runing the balance of the side. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment
