Where Should Dhoni Bat in ODIs??

[theguyinallblue]

Now that we have some what settled batting order...i wonder where can we extract maximum from Dhoni 1. Sehwag 2. Gambhir 3. Raina/ Rohit 4. Yuvi 5.Dhoni 6. Raina/Rohit 7. Pathan ( either of two ) is Number 5 the optimum number for Dhoni or Rohit should come before him... Dhoni can be devastating in slog overs...so can be Rohit.... Dhoni can build innings ...so can Rohit... Should we try Rohit at number 3 and Raina at 6. of Rohit comes at 3....then Dhoni should come at 5.. If Raina comes at 3..then Dhoni should come at 6

Dhoni at 5 or 6, no lower than that./

[King Tendulkar]

Dhoni at 5 or 6' date=' no lower than that./[/quote'] Agree 5 or 6. But no higher unless we are 310-1 with 10 overs left

[Gambit]

Having seen how successfully Raina has grabbed the #3 position, MSD should be a lock at #5. No lower.
