I know zilch about the way India selects its players' date=' but there is no way you can tell me straight up that Fhoni is a clean guy, with his incredulous confidence in this bloke. There defo has to be some bribing involved.[/quote'] Not with money......Dhoni is the richest sports person in India. But something is fishy.

Let’s for a while digress from mere number-crunching. Ishant’s forte is to bowl back of a length and hit the bat hard. Now, that is fine until a pacer is able to extract disconcerting bounce and bowls with an extra burst of pace. Sadly from India’s perspective, Ishant has struggled to do that. Dhoni seems to have supreme faith in Ishant and that perhaps stems from the fact that he towers over six feet and gives hope that he can push the batsmen back for others to take advantage of it by pitching it up to ram home the advantage. At present, Ishant being a battering ram in the side is just a theory on paper. In the ongoing ODI series in New Zealand, Ishant has been clambered at the speed of red-lightning for lacerating boundaries and sixes by batsmen, every-time he has been brought into the attack. He touched the nadir in the second ODI at Seddon Park, Hamilton. Here was a bowler who was clearly bereft of confidence, as during the last over of his spell, he bowled two feet wide outside the off-stump of Corey Anderson. Otherwise, he bowled in the batsman’s zone and was duly thwacked by the turbo-charged Anderson for the maximum. It was akin to watching a lamb being led to slaughter. In fact, ever since he was flagged down by James Faulkner’s breathlessly attacking brand of batsmanship in the ODI at Mohali, he has virtually been a cannon fodder for batsman on flat decks. Dhoni’s blind faith in Ishant is simply baffling. Since his debut he hasn’t even improved upon his wrist position and has lost a yard of pace too. There are those who vouch for the fact that he works his socks off in the nets, but in the end, performance counts. Ishant Sharma has to question his own conscience and ask where is that unquenchable self-belief and the big heart of a chivalrous warrior that one saw from him when he bowled to Ricky Ponting in 2008.
