King Tendulkar Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 At least look at the Indian team we have today. It's a bunch of newbies and in transition. We aren't whitewashed, just 2-1 behind with a test to play. Jeez Australia was mopping the ground post retirement of the great, they were losing ashes left right and center, they even got whitewashed by us. But did they press panic button? No. Dhoni can do only with the resources he has. I realized one thing about us Indian cricket fans. We are number one as holes. What were we expecting? This team to whitewash England? Lol. Give them a break, give them some time. Seriously pathetic etuff from us. And you avatar is a picture of srini your hero. Sums you up, your comments not to be taken seriously
Malcolm Merlyn Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 We need to slit our throats.Slitting wrists is no more enough.

Give them a break, give them some time. Seriously pathetic etuff from us. If you do not have the common sense to understnad why people are complaining better to not comment 1) We were one zero ahead and clearly on top after 2 matches. Yet captain chose an extremely defensive move of going with 4 bowlers and handed the initiative back to England This is not the first time this happened. Happened in SA, in New Zealand. Happened even with seniors in the team. We are criticizing for THAT 2) Our batsmen actually threw their wickets away on innocuous bowls. 19 wickets to Moeen. this has nothing to do with English pitches. we are criticizing for THAT 3) Australian team even when they were losing, were trying their best. This is the reason they made a comeback. On the other hand, Indian team had shown zero leanings, zero accountability and zero improvement. We are criticizing for THAT 4) You chest thump about being only 2-1 behind but this is the WEAKEST England side we have ever met, completely demoralized and down. We were on top of them for 2 tests. Yet we allowed them to come back to form. We are criticizing for THAT 5) No other captain in history would be retained after such a string of loses. Yet you are supporting him and blaming the young team, we are criticizing for THAT We are all for giving a young team maximum possible chances. However, that doesn't mean there is no accountability for losses and that Dhoni gets a free pass. When some of the very thing we predicted after seeing Dhoni's decisions and selections, come true, what do you expect, not to point them out? Everyone saw these a mile away. We have always lost initiatives and upper hands under Dhoni from great positions and always will Youngsters having skills require more time. However there are no excuses for pathetic and defensive tactics from an experienced captain. His time has run out
undisputed chap Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 we have a pathetic team. Having or not having dhoni wont change it one bit
King Tendulkar Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 we have a pathetic team. Having or not having dhoni wont change it one bit Well lets see!! Lets try and see! Staus quo is not working. Never know what may happen if team is run on merit and done in meritocracy. This may gain respect of players and mean better team spirit and performnaces Plus dhoni is thick. Start of play day 3, crucial first hour, batsman at most vulnerable. Any skipper would bring on best 2 bowlers to get the break trough first thing, captain idiot brings on 2 worst bowlers! That would be change for starters

That would be change for starters That idiotic logic he brings in from Limited Overs matches... The moment he identifies (unless he knows already) couple of his bowlers who are a liability, he tries to 'finish their quota of overs' ASAP. That's why the IDIOT started with two losers, first thing in the morning... The idiot is defensive to the core... Needs to go, ASAP...
CSK Fan Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 we have a pathetic team. Having or not having dhoni wont change it one bit Pathetic team is 7 down now. Might even lose the match after scoring 450.
