Muloghonto Posted April 8 Posted April 8 6 hours ago, Lord said: That average is a joke. He's got total 76 runs in 4 games. Is batting below Ashwin and Jadeja. Performance wise too he does not deserve a spot anymore. CSK is not a bottom feeder team. They are just indulging him and his fans. Even they knew they don't have the chance with squad they selected. My point is simple. Take the 10 wicketkeepers in IPL today. Is Dhoni in bottom of the lost or bottom 20% for performance ? If answer is no, he is average performer and deserves to play. Simple. As I said, a great isn't required to and shouldn't retire just coz he ain't great anymore, only if they are substandard to the team overall. I don't want Kohli dropped from tests coz he can't average 50 anymore. I want him dropped coz he can't average 30 anymore and that's waaaaay below standard for top order requirement in tests. If Kohli spent another 10 years averaging 43 with the bat, I am fine with him playing tests too.

Muloghonto Posted April 10 Posted April 10 People still think Dhoni is not IPL worthy ? is he dropping a **** ton of catches or is he too slow to pull of stumping ? ( i know Dhoni was never a Jeff Dujon/Mark Boucher style flying sideways to make a catch keeper even in his 20s). Because his batting seems to be around average for a lower order batter-keeper : can score 20-25 runs at blazing quickness if needed every now and then.... Yes, he isnt gonna be his old ATG finisher level batter at 43, i just expect him to be an average dude at 43 if he still expects to keep playing.

diga Posted May 6 Posted May 6 Read somewhere that Thala did not shake hands with opposition players after RCB match ... unsportsmanlike behaviour never gets called out

New guy Posted May 6 Posted May 6 You need peak captain Dhoni to give someone like old Dhoni, bum pe laat and kick him out of the team.

singhvivek141 Posted May 8 Posted May 8 All this facade, yet he isnt the one who is sitting out. Someone who would like to see competitiveness amongst the youngsters, MSD is just hanging like a sore thumb, he should have retired after 2023 IPL and become mentor of CSK.
