Vijy Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I actually completely agree with you about Dhoni's diminishing ability as a finisher. Was sadly evident in last year's IPL. Baz and Smith's form sort of masked it. In his prime, he was capable of doing both roles. It's a tough decision which, thankfully, I don't have to make.I'm not sold on Pandey either but he has earned himself a fair opportunity. Not sure he would be effective below number 5. Me neither, but he has looked more convincing than Gurk (in his limited outings) and Rayudu (who has a pretty solid avg, but never looked convincing). It is a pity though that K Jadhav was discarded so fast - a busy middle-order scorer, I'd have liked to have seen him at 5 or 6. However, little chance that he'll ever play again for India. For now, Rahane, Pandey and Dhobi (in some order) seem the best bet for our middle order. Link to comment

MechEng Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 He listens to his " gut feeling". He is constipated, so no gut feeling. Link to comment
Vijy Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 He is constipated, so no gut feeling.Someone should give me some digestive pills then... they may be bitter to swallow, but the aftereffect will be good... Dhobi will set in motion afterwards. Link to comment
adi B Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Dhoni is a massive brand in India and has a crazy fan following,won't go away that easily as a lot of sponsors,bcci Will not like it and they want to milk as much as they can with him still in the team.He has already retired from test so his workload is not huge ,sadly we'll have to see this washed up Dhoni continuing and dragging in the lois doccricket 1 Link to comment
