The Outsider Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 And probably old generation of fans do not read posts completely? Read the last line once again. What has "Dhoni should be sacked" got to do with comparing ODI and test whitewashes? Australia just got whitewashed in England in ODIs - probably the same thing as getting whitewashed in the Ashes, right? And where did I say anything about generation of fans? Link to comment
Sachin=GOD Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 South Africa were "demolished" in all senses - 10 consecutive ODI losses and were pathetic in Tests. #TrueStory Here's Neil Manthorp's article excerpt http://www.espncricinfo.com/magazine/content/story/143069.html It does not mean Dhoni shouldn't be sacked though. 10 ODIs in a row is not equal to 8 Tests in a row (out of which 4 we lost by an innings and others by margin of well over 100 runs. ) Link to comment

I was replying to Post 206 - I never meant to compare Tests and ODIs and I do not believe they are the same either. Apologies for the "old generation" barb; I confused your posts with KT's post. I'm nauseated after the display in the last 3 days. 10 ODIs in a row is not equal to 8 Tests in a row (out of which 4 we lost by an innings and others by margin of well over 100 runs. ) I never said they were equal! Post 206 says "no captain has survived whitewashes" (without the Test/ODI qualifier) - I just corrected it. I did not mean to compare or contrast or even suggest that they are equal! Link to comment

You could have given some examples of T20 whitewashes as well. Link to comment

Lord Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 expecting things to change during Srinivasan's reign is foolhardy wen is his term gonna be over Link to comment
King Tendulkar Posted December 23, 2012 Author Share Posted December 23, 2012 The fact dhoni is not resigning shows the type he is. No self respect. Clearly focused on his brand value which must go above the india team Link to comment
King Tendulkar Posted December 24, 2012 Author Share Posted December 24, 2012 Suddenly get rid of dhoni as test captain has all gone quiet. Looks like the csk brand is taking precedent over the indian test team. Link to comment
CG Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 He is one selfish ,Gutless, Moron.Who else could hold on to even t20 captaincy. Link to comment
Tridibans_16 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 He is one selfish ' date='Gutless, Moron.Who else could hold on to even t20 captaincy.[/quote'] Selectors and BCCI are equally responsible if not more. Look at CA and ECB. BCCI is only after money and brand. No cricket interest whatsoever. What else can be expected from a profit making private company BTW. Link to comment
