Facts that figure as the Dhoni-raj in Tests rambles on

True but Saha does not inspire me any confidence. I would rather go with karthik.
I have issues with DK's keeping as well. I dont think India have a sort of wicketkeeper batsman who keeps well and is technically sound. Aditya Tare of mumbai is a good bat but again question marks over keeping. Saha is probably the only one who keeps well and is a decent bat. Cant think of many more in the domestic scene who have played more than 20 ranji matches average more than 40 with the bat and keep well. Smit Patel is one player (under 19 WC winner) who probably might be one for the future.

and i agree. So you cant toss in people like Smit Patel or even Samson. Samson IMO is drifting towards becoming a batsman first and keeper second.

Problem is there is no viable replacement for Dhoni...too much at stack
This argument has been going on for years now. Under anyone's captaincy this can't get any worse.

Keep Dhoni as captain and don't select the guys Dhoni backs wrongly. Then he will be forced to pick the right players.
Exactly. Just like Michael Clarke opted out of team selection. He is still the captain on the field. Dhoni should be stripped of the right to select the playing XI. The coach and selectors should make these decisions. The captain should merely lead the team on the field.

Yes, it can.. . It can easily create friction within the team if Pujara is made captain... or anyone else to that matter.

How ? This is new team how will it matter ? This is exactly the reason to do it now all of the guys are new and young no chance of friction

Pujara ko bana ke dekho... see how Kohli reacts. One way to satisfy Kohli's ego is to give him either ODI or 20/20 captainship..

This is strange logic...no Kohli won't feel bad same way if Kohli is captain pujara will respect it..it's natural that one guy leads out of 11 Also none of them had this problem ever..ego clashes happened with seniors who actually thought they are beyond captain not cos they wanted to be one and we have always had this problem.. When dhoni was made captain wasn't you raj more senior ? And more experienced ?

My prediction is that Dhoni will retire by the end of this year or after whenever our next Australia tour is finishing.. He'll realize it that he is not upto it and just wasting a spot. By the end of that tour Dhoni will see Kohli as a capable candidate to lead.. Then, he'll focus on WC15...
