GolGappe Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 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. Tendulkar was captain in that series. Also, Ganguly captained first 2 test matches of lost home series against Aussies. He controversially sat out Nagpur test match. India lost in Bangalore under Ganguly, Drew in Chennai under Ganguly, Lost in Nagpur under Dravid, and won in Mumbai under Dravid.
CSK Fan Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Wait, Dhoni is leading the worst captain ever poll? Really? He was one of the best we had, it is only that he is past his sell by date now
Deleted_User_1 Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 First there is Jharkhandi, then there is daylight, and then the rest.
cricketman Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Probably Kumble, though he wasn't bad. Dravid wasnt great but did win a series in England
rkt.india Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Wait' date=' Dhoni is leading the worst captain ever poll? Really? He was one of the best we had, it is only that he is past his sell by date now[/quote'] He is one of the worst overseas. He does not know the A of captaining overseas. His captaincy is pure luck outside India and he is not winning too many lotteries in recent times.
CG Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Azhar was a fixer so he is worst but that i do not count him in the poll.
rkt.india Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Probably Kumble' date=' though he wasn't bad. Dravid wasnt great but did win a series in England[/quote'] Dravid was a thinking captain, pretty good tactically better than Ganguly, Dhoni, and Kumble. Even in IPL last season, he showed how good a tactical captain he was.
Gollum Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Sachin was a bad captain but he was an honest trier unlike Dhoni who is so corrupt.
cricraja Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 LOL@MSD getting the most votes for the worst Indian captain ever. Mostly knee-jerk reactions, I would say.
Roshanrocks Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 MSD is India's worst captain? :hysterical: We, Indians are the most fickle minded people on earth....
MCcricket Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 He is one of the worst overseas. He does not know the A of captaining overseas. His captaincy is pure luck outside India and he is not winning too many lotteries in recent times. Agree, he is useless in test , anywhere where he can't do the slow track, strangle the batsmen and be defensive with spinners he is out of it, it is beyond him, n his logic is weirder, just a blame game, and no justification or accountability
Marut Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Dhoni is a mixed bag. He has had some big highs and some abysmal lows. But he is the worst overseas test captain I have seen. India had a poor team in the 90s, but at no time did we see white wash over white wash.

That's not the case. If in 90s we were lambs abroad, under Dhoni we are roasted chicken served in the plate.
CSK Fan Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 He is one of the worst overseas. He does not know the A of captaining overseas. His captaincy is pure luck outside India and he is not winning too many lotteries in recent times. I missed the test part. Yes, he is kinda bad as a test captain
CSK Fan Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 LOL@MSD getting the most votes for the worst Indian captain ever. Mostly knee-jerk reactions' date=' I would say.[/quote'] We are talking only about tests. He has not done anything significant as a test captain
Sachin=GOD Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 M$D is by far the worst test captain we have had. If he did not have Srini's protection then he would have been sacked from the captaincy and dropped from the team after the whitewash in Aus.
