Lord Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Dhoni is worst captain ? World Cup win, World T20 win, reached No.1 in test and ODI rankings, test series win in West Indies, drawn series in South Africa, home series wins against Australia, NZ, WI and dominant in ODIs at home. Some people have no clue what they are talking about. Under Ganguly, we were also whitewashed in Australia and under Dravid, we lost home series against Australia. :hmmm:

I think you are referring to the 1999 series down under but SRT was the captain then, and Ganguly became the captain next year.
vamos_rafa Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Azhar of whom I saw. Lolz at people voting for Dravid/Kumble.
saneindian Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 I think you are referring to the 1999 series down under but SRT was the captain then' date=' and Ganguly became the captain next year.[/quote'] Think he meant NZ
Ultimate_Game Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Think he meant NZ Yup, that 2-0 loss on greentops where matches hardly went to Day 3 and both teams struggled to put up 3 figure totals. Can't blame Ganguly for that though.
rkt.india Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Dhoni certainly a poor test captian, better ODi captain.
SLICKR392 Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 I think Dravid was worst' date=' we hardly won anything, his own form in both ODIs and Tests was all time low. He was responsible for Sachin's downward spiral. He denied 200 to Sachin, such a strong Indian team knocked out in WC2007 under his captaincy (Worst period in Indian Cricket). He was not popular with Media and Commercial Ad world.[/quote'] I agree with most of the posts of others but your statement, if I might say, has to be the rubbish one. A) Wonder when you did start watching cricket? During the latter part of his ODI career he was one of our best finishers. He averaged around 33 or 35 before the '07 WC and 39 before he was dropped in the Champions Trophy. Wasn't at his best but was never out of touch during his reign as a Test captian. B) 'He was resposible for Sachin's downward spiral' - that is something that doesn't make any sense whatsoever and I bet even you can't support that statement with valid proof or stats, nonsense comment! C) I get the media part but what on earth does 'handling' commercial ad has to do with him and his captiancy? Laaloo 1

Can't blame Ganguly for that though.[/quote'] Yeah, that NZ series but I also thought Ganguly was the captain during 99/00 series in Australia but that was Sachin. My mistake. Just realized he was also the captain during 2004 series loss against Australia at home. Dravid stood in as captain at Nagpur as he refused to play the game. So all captains had their share of failures.

Dumbbells Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Dhoni without any shred of doubt. Azhar atleast played some great knocks.

G_B_ Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 I think its harsh calling Dhoni the worst captain of the lot. I dont think he is the best captain but he is not the worst either. You just cannot ignore 2 World cup wins and being number 1. While the 8-0 lingers, he is not the first indian captain to be blanked. Laaloo 1
