Dhoni is now officially a crap test captain

[Guest Hiten.]

Smith and petersen have been edgy against our bowlers yet there are no fielders to pile the pressure on them. We have to take wickets at a better rate if we are to remain #1 and level this series; considering how the weather is effed up in kolkata for the next 2 days. MSD has been defensive atm and this might cost India a prestigious record of not losing at home. This is utter garbage from the man in charge. Totally disappointed :headshake:

[Karan114]

Agreed completely, WTF is he doing

[graphic23]

Agreed. As much as his batting has improved, his captaincy has become exponentially worse. Smith is struggling against Harbhajan, and there are no close in fielders. What a dumb captain. :wall: Can we please get Sehwag to captain the test team?

really shocking tactics from dhobi the first few overs should have crowded the bat with 4 or 5 fielders even for bhajji

[riya]

Yeah so defensive.Thats poor from Dhoni.

[Mr. Wicket]

I agree. He also once skipped a test series to rest (Katie wrote a lot of long posts about it, if you haven't heard about the incident). What kind of a leader is that? Dhoni really needs to improve a great deal if he's to earn back the Official blue_brigade seal of approval!

[Karan114]

If Smith settles in, it will be a dangerous situation for India given Smith's record in second innings pressure situations

.Wonder why Badrinath who is a far better fielder is on the fence while Ishant was standing at point.

[saneindian]

Disappointed with the field settings and also the complete lack of energy on the field from the team. With 347 ahead and a lot at stake in this test, I was expecting them to show a lot more intent. Lets hope we get a wicket soon which could change things a little.

The name is Dhoni. If you can't spell, use a ****ing spell checker.

Yes it is a kneejerk reaction if we were in coma for the last one year.

[davidcooper]

great so zaheer is obviously injured and bowling crap

[Desi Cartman]

He should have also selected 13 players instead of 11 .. :wall:

[gaurav92]

I agree, its as if they have got a 347 run lead by looking at the field placements :headshake:

[King Tendulkar]

Bhaji was bowling really well and took him of???

[Sachinism]

He should have also selected 13 players instead of 11 .. :wall:
