India backing too many quick bowlers who haven't been bowling well: Dhoni


Recommended Posts

Look India need to find a happy middle ground, we need 5-6 pacers who bowl in the 135-140 zone on a regular basis. Thats neither trundling and nor fast. But can provide control and get swing. Especially in the limited overs pace bowling has never been our strength. So lets stop pretending like India is going to find a pack of bowlers who are going to be similar to south africa. I do believe Shami is one such 135-140 bowler in the limited overs.

Dhoni has lost it. If he has problems with selectors picking players he doesn't want, can't bring that up in public by trashing the players.

Mohit Sharma, Jadeja, Dhoni in general have been garbage n why r they in the team, Umesh has a technical issue n he should talk to Shoaib, I think Dhoni is making a joke of himself when the past greats rate Umesh highly n its his fault that he could not ever build us a decent bowling attack

Line & length trundler >>A mindless quicky. Not sure what wrong Dhoni said. If I was Indian captain, I would pick Mohit Sharma anyday over Umesh Yadav in ODI's In tests ofcourse I will go with Yadav.

Weren't you the one who always wanted quicks in the team and got tired of trundlers ? Now just to defend your hero,you're going to the extent of defending his lame statements :cantstop: At least have a constant view mate

dhoni hates Varun and Umesh both.... initially he hated DINDA and Shammi too
True. Shami has turned out to be class bowler. Its the manner in which he openly criticiizes the pacers is concerning and offers question mark on his leadership/ man management capability

It is really poor from Dhoni. He is taking jibe on his bowlers in press conferences. Even directly taking Umesh Yadav's name would have been more respectable that this kind of comment.

That's what I was talking about. It is not just Dhoni, but our fans too are extremely harsh on our fast bowlers. Look at Pakistanis, someone like Wahab who has been trash for years is being celebrated as the second coming of Marshal after that single spell in the WC. And here, we have people bashing Umesh even though he has been one of our top bowlers for quite a long time.

Pathetic stuff from Dhoni.No matter how bad Umesh was in the Bangladesh series,Dhoni shouldn't be criticizing him in public. If he wants to criticize players in the team for their performances,he should start with his buddy Jadeja who's been terrible with both bat and ball for a couple of years now but still somehow gets a place in the playing XI consistently.

Too much criticism towards Dhoni these days. The bad thing is we are considering Kohli a better captain than Dhoni. Only when Dhoni is gone, we'll come to know what our team is really made of. No captain can do what Dhoni did in the last few years with these pathetic bowlers. Most of the best days of Indan Cricket came under him.
