saneindian Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 Not giving an over to Jadeja, asking YoMahesh, a rookie to bowl the last over. Then on a turning track, opening with his pacers and persisting with them, some senseless captaincy decisions on the field..the same mistakes he's been making when he leads India. Even in the IPL, MSD's captaincy and the absolutely horrific tactical blunders he is making continue to haunt the side he's leading. Clear indications of a leader in terminal decline. Have been saying this for sometime now, his captaincy days are over.
ganeshran Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 The last over wasnt a bad move really. It was the batting which cost us the game. Par score on this pitch was 160-170 and there were also wickets in hand
Yoda-esque Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 Maybe the Chennai dynasty needs to remove Dhoni also :giggle:
Swing_n_Speed Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 In the final over, YoMahesh had a packed offside field.What does he do? He bowls the first ball on legstump. Easy pickings for Smith. Next ball Smith swishes the bat, makes a connection, but the fielder on the ropes had a chance to either pull it in or catch the ball. He does neither. It's a SIX! On another day it might've been a catch! I really wld'nt blame Dhoni here.
Yoda-esque Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 :csk: need to remember that Dhoni was the reason why they won the previous two times.Take him away and you guys are ordinary..
GautiMaan Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 His team selection sucks as always,bringing in mahesh when he had Tyagi wtf
J P K Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 To start off with dhoni `s batting was so poor missing many full toss and free hits and then bowling YoMahesh in the last over we cannot say much about it because dhoni had tim southee (ipl debut ) bowl last over it worked well that time
vvvslaxman Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 CSK fans are going to cut a sorry figure as i don't expect Dhoni to change. Difference between this edition and previous editions is DHoni wasn't this casual in those editions. This season he is ultra casual so far.

yoda Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 Dhoni lost the game with his batting. I mean batting till the last over at less than a run a ball with Morkel, Bravo warming the bench. Really?
bajrang Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 giving over to jadeja would have ended the game an over before with pune winning. jaddu is hopeless when under fire. CSK is having absolutely horrible time, out of 5 games they have won only 1 game convincingly.
Stuge Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 its was dhonis batting which costed CSK today's match . 26 runs of 28 balls in T20 are you kidding me :haha:
yoda Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 its was dhonis batting which costed CSK today match . 26 runs of 28 balls in T20 are you kidding me :haha: Exactly and that too with Morkel and Bravo warming the bench. The guy gives them 1 over to bat. :hahaha:
Number Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 He should take some rest. He wanted rest from Asia cup , but they didn't allow him. Hope he screws a few more games and then gives the captaincy to Raina and Wicket-keeping to Saha.
CSK Fan Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 He used the same tactic by bowling a rookie bowler in the last over in the T20 final we won.
Needforspeed Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 His team selection sucks as always' date='bringing in mahesh when he had Tyagi wtf[/quote'] What else do u expect from a trundler supporter? Tactically, giving the last over was to Yo Mahesh was as retarded as Vittori giving the 19th over to Kohli.
yoda Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 ^10 runs off last over with wickets in hand is almost impossible to defend in T20. The game was lost while batting with Dhoni eating up balls like a hungry hippo.

Tactically' date=' giving the last over was to Yo Mahesh was as retarded as Vittori giving the 19th over to Kohli.[/quote'] Again, didn't you see the exact tactic he used to win us the the T20 world cup.did you really George teen runs in one over could be defended by any other bowler. It was not a bad tactic

Needforspeed Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 He should take some rest. He wanted rest from Asia cup , but they didn't allow him. Hope he screws a few more games and then gives the captaincy to Raina and Wicket-keeping to Saha. +1. He should do what Sachin did with MI. I would love to see the old care-free Dhoni. He looks so tense these days.
