I thought Yadav was injured, buy no, he is back. So, it is Dhoni not having confidence in his quicks case. Very strange in SAF.
Why else would you think he has saved Yadav for the death? He is slated to bowl 7 at the death. If Dhoni doesn't bowl Bhuvi at death, its because he doesn't have confidence in him. Then Bhuvi gets smashed around and no complains when he is dropped. When Dhoni saves Yadav for the death, its again because he doesn't have confidence in Yadav.

Sorry' date=' it just annoys me when people blame Dhoni for everything. Do people realise that our bowling stocks just aren't that good. Why must everyone assume that the players are faultless (except trundlers of course) and Dhoni is always at fault. The idea that Dhoni has a vendetta against fast bowlers is just so ridiculous it makes my blood boil.[/quote'] We gotta deal with this Paki attitude on ICF. If not Dhoni, someone else. Just ignore and let them mourn.

Yes. It is not the arguments themselves but the circularity and inherent contradictions which annoy me. The same thing is present with bowling long spells and bowling short spells. Long spells means Dhoni is bowling into the ground and short spells means no confidence.

Man are better than dhoni bhakts.Forget those dhoni hates fast bowlers because he fears for his fingers statements those are idiotic.But todays captaincy of bringing kohli and raina on after 10 overs when we have 5 regular bowlers and 3 seamers seems idiotic by any standard.

Nobody bowls 7 overs on the trot at the death. Genuine fast bowlers should be used in 4 or 5 over spells for optimum result. Further, Umesh is returning back after a long time and needed some overs under his belt. The aggressive approach is to attack upfront with your wicket taking pacers, Umesh and Shami in this case. They should have bowled 8 to 10 overs in tandem at the beginning. Should do this match after match.This is how great pace partnerships are formed.

What I don't understand why Dhoni choose bowling in both the ODI's when everybody knows that SA is not good at chasing
Probably because we are the best chasers. Backing your own strength against looking at opponent's weakness. And also because defending anything with this bowling will be difficult.

Yes Yadav should have bowled at least 4-5 overs upfront. But Dhoni knows best what he is doing. he maybe thinking about the death when removed Yadav because even if we picked up 1-2 wickets, ABDV, Duminy, Miller etc would have still taken us apart in death overs if we didn't have the right bowlers.
