Sidhoni Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Cmon. He has been playing nearly EVERY match India or CSK have played since around 2006. Wicketkeeping for the whole innings and still being the fastest runner between the wickets in the team isn't easy. And he has been doing this for almost 5 years now. Add to that the captaincy burden. He is the fittest Indian cricketer according to many. He just needs some rest before the all-important series versus Eng and Aus. And, do you really feel much will change if he plays one Ranji match against J&K before the series vs England? Link to comment
BeautifulGame Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 maybe not shooting Ads but he was still opening the gym in Delhi - if he is really sick he should rest. Common You as well me know its most likely an excuse to get some rest from cricket. And rest doesnt mean just physical rest as some are saying here.Most cricketers when they mean rest mostly means mental stress involved as a cricketer.And acting in adds or doing promos are one way relieving from these pressure cooker situations.

Sidhoni Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 This season hasn't been as hectic as some of the previous ones. IPL ended on 28th May. Since then in the last 5 months, we have played 5 ODIs and 2 T20s in SL, 5 T20s in WT20 and add another 4 T20 matches for Dhoni in CLt20, a total f 16 playing days in a time span of nearly 155 days! If thats not enough of a rest wonder what else would be needed for proper rest. Also, even after the round 1 of ranji, there are still 10 days to go before the 1st test starts giving amle time for 'rest'. You missed NZ tour of India. Link to comment
saneindian Posted November 3, 2012 Author Share Posted November 3, 2012 You missed NZ tour of India. Yeah, my bad. Add 10 more days, still no reason for missing the chance to play for his state side, that too with such a tasteless and a silly excuse. Shows zero respect for domestic cricket. Link to comment
yoda Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Let's face it. Form is not an issue for Dhoni, it is more a question of does he care about a game or not. Link to comment

Shows zero respect for domestic cricket.[/quote'] I know his excuse was really silly but like some guys mentioned earlier, he is also a human being and not a machine. He also needs rest before the important series against England. Also, it won't have made much of a difference if he plays the Ranji match against J&K. He is still gonna score runs in Indian conditions. Link to comment

jairamesh Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Dhoni looks hopelessly out of his depth against quality spin now 3 innings in a row. This skipping of Ranji games just comes across as sheer complacency and arrogance at not acknowledging his shortcomings. Link to comment
The Outsider Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Pathetic batting, pathetic captaincy, pathetic keeping. This is the "package"! But the Indian love for mediocrity means he is the most popular Indian cricketer. Link to comment

Fooking retards think (ie, our selectors) think like you. No wonder no-body like yuvi and bhajji are in the team :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: Link to comment

CG Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Atleast Karthick could try to take catches rather than watching hopelessly and giving the cool expression. Link to comment
