koksmayu Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Being exposed great exposure for team, says Dhoni MS Dhoni has stated that the recently concluded Test series against New Zealand has been "good exposure" for a young and inexperienced team. He pointed to the way they were exposed as a bowling unit in the second innings of the final Test as especially useful exposure, and the cruelly exposed shortcomings of some of his more inconsistent batsmen as particularly constructive exposure that should stand the team in good stead for future exposures. Dhoni also pointed out that he was happy to have been able to lead from the front in being exposed for some cripplingly fatal captaincy decisions. The captain later also spoke of the recent "improvement" that India have shown in away games. "Well, of course, we've been working hard on getting the number of Tests reduced and the results speak for themselves," he explained. "While a couple of years ago we lost 0-4 to both England and Australia, more recently we've only been losing 0-1 in two-Test series." Link to comment

Texan Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Ironically, we won the World T20 when absolutely nobody was expecting us to win.... and then did terribly in the following World T20s when we were expected to do well. Link to comment

Pitches in winter are far drier and flat and they did not play a single game at Wanderers, Centurian or Durban rather in Pretoria, one of flattest pitch and smallest ground in the world. He scored 248 in one of the one day matches there. Link to comment
