End of Yuvraj and Dhoni

[ThePhenomenal1]

Disgrace. This loss really hurts because we could have won the game. It wasn't out of our reach. Yuvraj Singh has cost us the cup. He is finished, never should play again. Feel bad for kohli, rohit, ashwin, all the guys who put the work in and got us to the finals. Dhoni is a big reason for the loss, even bigger than yuvraj! You had 130 on the board. Its not the best but you take it, your bowlers did it in the champions trophy. What does he do? DEFENSIVE CAPTAINCY - Fielders on boundaries, no saving the singles - No slips or wide slips - Not letting bhuvi swing the ball - Bowling raina 4 overs when ashwin got wicket and he didnt bowl him again until later - Sending yuvraj in ahead of raina when yuvraj has struggled The fact that he didnt even put pressure on the opponents by restricting singles means he should be kicked out. He is FINISHED. Failed in south africa, failed in new zealand and now failed in World t20 final. Scored no runs, what did he even do apart from take part in the toss? Never felt more disgusted. We could have won this cup. Our boys deserved it. Now for IPL csk and all that garbage. This team deserves so much more than yuvraj and dhoni. This captain has held the whole team down and his crony yuvraj. ***** THEY SHOULD NEVER PLAY AGAIN. Dhoni is done as captain.

Captiancy was brainless. Utter brainless. Mohit's selection. Wouldn't put a lot of blame in sending Yuvi at #4 but it still sucked. Mishra against 2 lefties when he should have bowled Ashwin. That's is for Yuvi in Indian colors though. Ta ta!

Yuvi - immediately Dhoni - post 2015 wc

you are only fooling yourself if you think dhoni is going anywhere

LOL because of Dhoni's calmness we reached so far till final. All commies appreciated his captaincy as well. Yuvi needs to go.

:hysterical::hysterical: CALMNESS? WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? Yeah he was calm behind the stumps when batsmen slogged our bowlers and sneaked easy singles and twos.. does that equal a win? He has done nothing this tournament. NOTHING. Any significant runs? Any significant captaincy? Forced to pick mishra cause he played well, mohit sharma selection didnt work although he got a wicket. All he had to do was lead and put pressure on batsmen but ms dhoni is a defensive piece of sh*t.

I always said Dhoni is a BS captain winning by luck and by being "cool". Guess what the "cool"ness has worn off and the BS'ness has stuck around.

Dude, I may be the only one who has been asking for him to be removed off the yellow jersey. Guess you didn't follow my posts in the IPL forum. :winky:

130 against Sanga, Jaya and Dilshan was impossible to defend for any captain. We lost the game in the last 5 overs of Indian innings. Yuvi was sent in the 11th over, plenty of time to get into groove. So can't blame skipper here.

Well his WC 2011 final performance was clutch, and that was good enough for the entire tourney as a batsman. He is a monster ODI batsman, however in T20s he is neither a good or even an average captain and is a rather mediocre batsman.

Bigger question is how soon till THE ONE will be coming back?...

He cannot promote himself to open the innings, right?

Just 1 notable innings in more than 8 ICC tournaments. That's his legendary contribution to Indian loi cricket.

Nothing is impossible, you just need to fight and if you lose after a fight then you know there was nothing to be done. But after that perera wicket in mohits first over, he gets raina in shortly after. No restricting singles and showing aggression. He went back to defensive captaincy and this is the result. it was cause of raina and kohli that we finished off south africa. or else defensive captaincy would have lost us that match cause he had the same tactics.

[Haarkarjeetgaye]

Anyone who thinks Dhoni should go does not want India to have a good chance in 2015. You don't change captains 1 year before a WC. Pick up any WC winning team and see how long did the captains serve before WC. Dhoni has to be given all that he needs till 2015. after 2015 he can get lost.

[_Triple_H_]

dhoni is going nowhere. After WC 2015 will be I guess when he gives his captaincy to Virat.

Though we have always had a weak link in the fifth bowler. I think Dhoni was worried about using up both our trump spinners too early and leaving the quota of 5th bowler too late. In this match, both spinners should have bowled early. Especially to Sanga. Bringing Jadeja against him was a crime.

[Marut]

We lost in the final - not the first round. If Dhoni should go (on the basis of this match), all the other seven captains should go too.
