Zanjeer Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 ^Also I am not suggesting or calling Dhoni an unpatriotic guy' date='Just questioning his passion for the game of cricket.He has 0 interest and I think once he is done with the game will be done with the game period.[/quote'] He is an athlete who plays cricket the way he knows. He doesn't believe in technique (he said this often in many interviews) and that's why he looks more positive while batting in Odis in overseas conditions and he looks so pathetic in test matches. He doesn't believe in using cricketing skills and that's why we see the bowling changes he makes which is completely ridiculous like he did in the second Odi when he asked to bowl Raina and virat in the first fifteen overs. He goes by instincts and to be fair to him his instincts were proved right in the 2007 wc when he asked to bowl johinder Sharma the last over and the 18th over he asked to bowl ishant Sharma in champions trophy finals. His instincts have failed terribly plenty of times and this is when he pisses off so many cricket fans. He thinks fast bowling is easy and that's why he asks them to bowl in too many spells. Fast bowlers will get injured and their confidence would be destroyed if he continues this way.
Raghav_12 Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 And won the match nearly single handedly for India' date=' But obviously that is not important, his assumed insecurity is much more important.[/quote'] without him we were winning comfortably. For me wining comfortably matters more than somebody winning single-handedly.
saneindian Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 without him we were winning comfortably. For me wining comfortably matters more than somebody winning single-handedly. Not sure if we were winning comfortably. Lankans thrashed by around 150 runs, we thrashed WI and then scraped through vs SL after a poor batting display. Would have lost the final if he did not play that innings. While we are at it, let me get an answer from you. Sachin did not play the ODIs after WC, did not play vs Eng or WI at home. But went to CB series and played in the Asia Cup, was it his insecurity? Lure of money? That 100th 100? Or just the passion for the game and commitment to the country?
CG Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 And people brush this under carpet. Corruption is ingrained in our mentality.India is famous for chalta hai attitude.

CG Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Did not dhoni miss the srilankan test series ,I never see many indian players missing IPL like ishant did :hats off: Even viru played with injury in ipl and missed wi test series.
express bowling Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Corruption is ingrained in our mentality.India is famous for chalta hai attitude. Corruption is present in every country. The western world tries.to hide that and project a clean image. We are not bothered about a bad image.

Yoda-esque Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 seriously..i dont know why there is so much over reaction .. this is probably the reason i siad dont hype team too much and dont expect much cos this isfirst away tour and we are not magically going to beat south africa cos we have not done that even once in our history! this over reaction here on icf is shocking cos even after 8-0 most people did not whined like this and had valid arguments All because Yadav did not get 2 overs extra, lol No difference between these fans and padosi fans..In fact some of them are happier if we lose and come in here to post just for that only..
Sidhoni Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 No passion? :facepalm: I thought the thread couldn't get any dumber but always trust maniac to surprise!
CSK Fan Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 He scored 139 against Aus in 3rd ODI with injury :facepalm: if he had no passion he could have just thrown away his wicket or retired from Test... A good businessman will always lead from the front and protect his interests. Unfortunately he is more of a businessman now than a sportsman and most of his decisions as a captain seem to be to protect and encourage his businesses in the form of CSK/Rhiti players. Playing both Ashwin and Jadeja every game is just one of the examples.
CSK Fan Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 All because Yadav did not get 2 overs extra, lol No difference between these fans and padosi fans..In fact some of them are happier if we lose and come in here to post just for that only.. No because Kohli, Raina, Ashwin, Jadeja got 25 overs in a 49 overs match. Lol, lol, lol. You can sweep this under the captain all you want but you also know this makes zero logical sense except for him protecting his CSk team mates
Yoda-esque Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 No passion? :facepalm: I thought the thread couldn't get any dumber but always trust maniac to surprise! Those and controversial theories, padosi fans mentality These are the knee jerk and the irrational fans we keep talking about

I do agree his captaincy was awful and selecting two spinners in Saf pitches,bowling part timers during 13th over was a big mistake but doesn't mean he lost his passion for cricket.
Detonator Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 No because Kohli' date=' Raina, Ashwin, Jadeja got 25 overs in a 49 overs match. Lol, lol, lol.

CG Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Bhuvi out after one match yadav in .But ishant stays after series of bad performances and he looked like the same bowler ,he has not worked on anything from seam position to sunup.Rahane out lol he must be blaming the locket :hysterical:
