We compared Ganguly with Dhoni, Sachin with KOhli etc. all the time. This thread is a testimony that we have gone from a superb LOI skipper and settled for mediocrity. Actually pretty much everyone here agrees Rohit as a captain > Virat as a captain in shorter formats. Kohli proved it with RCB also with Indian side. There is no secret there. He is a captain by inevitability rather he is good at it Switchblade 1

What exactly does this prove? I think we won the one off T20 in 2010 and lost ODI 3-2 in 2013 it was 3 Odis and 2 Test matches. velu and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1

This moron just to get that Audi car played super slowly to get to his 50 in the final. IT was a combination of everyone. L Siva, Kapil, Azhar, Srikkanth.

Bigg Brother Posted November 22, 2018 Posted November 22, 2018 Smith and Warner played in only first t20. This is better team.Passengers like Wade is not there. We lost ODIs against their B attack. UrmiSinhaRay 1
Global.Baba Posted November 22, 2018 Posted November 22, 2018 (edited) The fact that false trivia like Dhoni won the only odi tournament in Australia and other pseudo history like he is the greatest keeper bat ever and he is the best captain ever gets thrown around loosely gives us an insight into the demographic of the average MSD fan base.

Moreover the team played close but your point is valid too. I dnt see any passeneger this side, apart from Manish on bench i dnt see much wrong with this squad . We had passengers in that side to Dhoni - not a good a t20 player Jadeja- not a good t20 player yuvi- done n dusted Dhawan - not a good t20 player back then But actually all clicked n did well as a team then and dhoni did use his bowler well, specially someone like yuvi was used to get maxwell out in all 3 games.

Bigg Brother Posted November 23, 2018 Posted November 23, 2018 (edited) Only thing I remember about Dhoni from that t20 series is him coming before Yuvraj in first 2 matches when Kohli and Rohit had already set up target just to hit few soft runs while sent Yuvraj chasing 200 ahead of himself and not to forget that epic choke of Canberra ODI-got out for 0 coming at 278/2..

Singh bling Posted November 23, 2018 Posted November 23, 2018 His luck is too bad for captaincy. With Rohit sharma india won with 6 on last ball, with kohli we can't even make 21 of 12 with karthik and pant batting UrmiSinhaRay 1

Stan AF Posted November 23, 2018 Posted November 23, 2018 Jokes aside, there's a good chance that Kohli may end up losing this T20 series because of him selecting Krunal over Chahal and dropping himself to #4. You need your wicket taking bowlers and your best batsmen to face the most deliveries to win a series. At the moment he's not doing both. UrmiSinhaRay 1
Bigg Brother Posted November 23, 2018 Posted November 23, 2018 Also Under him we have registered our lowest score in T20 ever that too in same country. http://www.espncricinfo.com/series/14141/scorecard/291356/australia-vs-india-only-t20i-india-tour-of-australia-2007-08 Kaha gaya re OP.

Clarke Posted November 23, 2018 Posted November 23, 2018 Wretched luck. Bowlers did their job this time and rain ruined it. If only we had Dhoni to hold a mountain on his little finger, thus shielding the ground .. now where did I read about such a thing ? I don't suppose it has anything to do with blind faith.
