express bowling Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Becos he does NOT care. He treats Indian cricket like our national cricket is a wh*re. BCCI and our selectors need to re-pay in kind to that moron. It is the sad truth. MSD just does not care about test cricket. Neither does he understand it much. It is becoming really difficult to watch MSD captain India these days.
velu Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Pathetic test batsmen :wall: Dhoni should have stayed in India and Kohli should have captained the entire series Averaging around 32 in 2014 .. All away matches . Not bad for a wk who bats at #7
StriKe Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Averaging around 32 in 2014 .. All away matches . Not bad for a wk who bats at #7 Stop defending Dhoni :facepalm:
velu Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Stop defending Dhoni :facepalm: Check the stats. There are batsman who did/doing worse than him but why target him only.
express bowling Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Averaging around 32 in 2014 .. All away matches . Not bad for a wk who bats at #7 Gilchrist averaged 47+ batting at no.7. MSD's talent is in no way inferior to Gilchrist. If he were serious about tests he could have averaged atleast 45.

express bowling Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Check the stats. There are batsman who did/doing worse than him but why target him only. Rohit, Dhawan and even Pujara have done worse. Rohit has been dropped. Dhawan should be dropped. Almost all fans barring diehard ones want them removed from our team. Only Pujara seems to have long term promise. Even he is under a lot of pressure and being criticized. The problem with Dhoni.is that he cannot be removed even if he deserves to.
StriKe Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Check the stats. There are batsman who did/doing worse than him but why target him only. 07/08 Matches 4, Runs : 141, HS 38, Avg 17.82 11/12 Matches 3, Runs : 102, HS 57, Avg 20.40 14/15 Matches 2, Runs 44, HS 33, Avg 14 1 fifty for our Captain Dhoni in Australia out of 9 test :hatsoff:
express bowling Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 really?:cantstop: You think that a batsman averaging 52 in ODIs and hailed as one of the best finishers ever , does not have extra talent. Add to that his superlative hitting ability. Dhoni does not care about tests, nor does he understand it. He is an abysmal test captain. His recent attitude is disgusting. But that does not undermine his hitting talent and ability

But that does not undermine his hitting talent and ability Actually he doesn't have Gilchrist's ability or technique overseas, so he is right. He never had the technique for test cricket except on flat pitches

He never had the technique for test cricket except on flat pitches[/quote'] There have been many strokeplayers who have succeeded in tests inspite of below par techniques. Sehwag is a good example. Add to that the fact that he bats at no.7 where it is easier to pass off weaker technique stroke players. Also, Gilchrist's foot movement was not that good. If MSD was more serious about tests, he. could have done much better.
bharat297 Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 I can forgive technical flaws if he is playing aggressively. The way he got out was a weird poke for a ball outside off. Even if he middled it, it would have just gone to gully. I don't know what he was hoping to achieve. It seemed like a very ODI / T20 shot to play (the run down to 3rd man) This is his 90th Test match. Some situational awareness would have been nice.
bulbul Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 ballet dancers would be very proud of that split.:hatsoff: Good advertisement for tailor.
coffee_rules Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Aus 115 for 3 to 530 India 409 for 3 to barely reaching 500 Bad bowling and captaincy from Dhoni
Raghav_12 Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Check the stats. There are batsman who did/doing worse than him but why target him only. All his runs come in dead situation without even threatening the outcome of the match, forget about actually changing. India has won only one test outside subcontinent where his contribution was 1 and 19. Most of the time, he helps himself to a 50 or so when match outcome is already sealed or pressure is off. There is no purpose in many of those 50's which he scores. For example a 30 -40 today would really have been valuable today but once again fell woefully short.
dragonfly Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Dhoni doesn't merit a position in the team based on his performance.
Marut Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Dhoni should be dropped for outside SC matches - sigh, he is the captain.
