Remember when we used to win so many close matches while defending under Dhoni.

Having said that it is shocking how India did not expect Srilankans would run for a bye. THat was so basic.

 

That was the main point of this thread. How can we let someone take 2 byes from 1 ball. 

 

Pant should have down better and Arshdeep shouldn't have thrown it the 2nd time. Simple cricket sense missing.

Dhoni never got any flak for all the losses

Yes he got. Thats why he was smart and did the right thing. Quit test captaincy

Dhoni was useless in t20. Hate that cunt for the disgraceful 9 zero drubbing in test format from 2011-2013. Shameful

pathetic piece of ****. 

 

He is a good odi captain yes. As many mentioned he is useful for spinners but not for pace. Heard stories about how he wanted to protect his weak hands from pace bowlers. Too much to handle. Lol

Dhoni would have struggled in this era. Even weak teams like SL have become very professional in their approach and have quite high fitness standards. In the data era of cricket, weaknesses are ruthlessly exposed and Dhoni had many.
