The Outsider Posted July 22, 2007 Posted July 22, 2007 Feasible Test Batsman? :hysterical: Good to see you posting again, Ranj. We were missing your humor!!
Gaurav Posted July 22, 2007 Posted July 22, 2007 Mujare walli Dhobin better score 200 tomorrow :secruity:
Predator_05 Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 Oye hoye, Yadav ne ek FIFTY banaya ! Kya baat hai...:haha: So there IS a god after all ! ...and he only shows up when the match is already lost for India...:hysterical:
living Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 bsr why aren't you miling this thread? Good innings by Dhoni, and he did indeed prove he's no flat track bully. His interview at the end was classy, and is indicative of his great attitude. yay, now we have 2 good wicketkeeper batsmen - screw pak hahaha
yoda Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 let's not take anything away from his past accomplishments. the guy is still a very capable flat track bully. :tounge_smile:l
gs Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 FTB or not, I will take a man with a big heart than an immensely talented mice! (sounds like sidhuism to me :)
King Tendulkar Posted July 23, 2007 Author Posted July 23, 2007 Right you miserable gits. My turn now. Today was a 5th day pitch, bowler friendly conditions against an attack with pace, swing and seam. Pressure situation and he delivers. FTB my ar#se. He is in the process of showing he is no FTB. If any of you had bothered to watch him in SA you may have realised this!

Now what? Our boys our delivering!
King Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 Guys like Dhoni and Karthik are needed in this team. As much as you would like to hate Dhoni for chickening out in the first inning, you would admire his grit in the second wouldn't you? I've always been saying technique is way over rated. Dhoni has his work against incoming short balls cut out. I hope he works at that, he looked pretty amateur even early in the inning playing against the short one but his grit and determination saw him through. This inning will help his confidence. On a tough 5th day pitch he saw the team through to a draw and that is one commendable job.
The Outsider Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 This inning will help his confidence. On a tough 5th day pitch he saw the team through to a draw and that is one commendable job. That is the biggest positive from the match. Let's see if he can build on it.

Gambit Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 Now he has outperformed Kamran Akmal in RSA and England :hysterical:
Bumper Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 Dhoni has surpassed my expectations for the series. Prior to the series i had set a target of two 50s for Dhoni with an average of 35. With this 92, Dhoni now has two 50s and an average of 58 in 4 attempts, with one 50 saving us a test & another sealing a possible series win. Him & Karthik, the two keepers, have been the most influential Indian batsmen of the series thus far. Its a myth that Kamran is a technically better batsman than Dhoni. Technique or no technique Dhoni has done as well as Akmal in alien conditions. I would have liked Dhoni to have saved us the Durban test match. He almost did. That would have been a fantastic achievement. Dhoni has sealed his spot in the team for now.
Ram Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 Dhoni has sealed his spot in the team for now. And more pertinently, delayed Sehwag's comeback by another 6 months
SightForTheGods Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 Dropping Dhoni is out of question...Anti-Dhoni people should leave Dhoni alone now
