tweaker Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 After Virat Kohli stupendous performance as captain in overseas series,Dhoni does not deserve to be captain anymore
achilles Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 Now if we lose this game, God bless this thread.
India-KXIP fan Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 In hindsight we are all idiots and watch too many movies :whine: Should have used Dhobi approach and shut up shop. 2 down at tea, went for it and lost 8 in a session. Lesson learned I guess... :((
kosingh Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 Could have used Dhoni as a batter today. Might have shown some maturity
sm332 Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 8 wickets in 20 overs - just gutless performance by the rest. Many of these chaps have been around a while - the defeat doesnt bother me as much as not fighting it out.
BeautifulGame Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 We would have at least drawn if not won with Dhoni instead of Saha
India-KXIP fan Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 8 wickets in 20 overs - just gutless performance by the rest. Many of these chaps have been around a while - the defeat doesnt bother me as much as not fighting it out. Not gutless...many wickets were lost going for a win. If we kept playing naturally and not for a win this was a sure draw. But we all watch too many movies. I wanted a win but was so wrong. Chit just does not happen on a 5th day. End of story.
achilles Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 To everyone who are talking about Dhoni- Dhoni would have NEVER been brave enough to try for a victory, that defensive piece of sheet!
Gambit Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 Didn't even feel his absence. Unfortunately, he will be back next test.
achilles Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 Its depressing to see Dhoni back. The guy can't win us a crucial test overseas even if his life depended on it.
Texy Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 That MSD defeatist mentality is cancerous to this team.
India-KXIP fan Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 Kohli for captain. One lesson we should take though we should be a bit more realistic next time a situation like this comes. Im not saying go all out defensive but keep getting 2-3 an over and only think of win when target is 50 away and not 150 away on 5th day of a test. Draw and safety first. Risk nothing rather than Risk everything. Then again motivation for a win may have been reason for this excellent performance by Kohli so I really :idunno:
asterix Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 Back to defensive field settings, defensive bowling, skewed bowling quotas (2 over spells) and IPL like bowling rotation...
bulbul Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 Dhoni is going to comeback :(( :(( This test should have been a boring draw if Dhoni was captain.
Lord Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 To everyone who are talking about Dhoni- Dhoni would have NEVER been brave enough to try for a victory, that defensive piece of sheet! We did that in NZ first Test
