Tibarn Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 Obviously. Gambhir: Dhoni, when asked why we didn't bring a backup opener during our SA-NZ tour, he said he considers Gambhir the backup opener, even though he wasn't in the squad. Gambhir also came back for the England series. Yuvraj: played both the last 2 WT20s after not exactly setting the world on fire in the last few IPLs. Also played the last Asia cup. They both had numerous chances, since supposedly being ousted. If Dhoni didn't want them, how would they have been selected, let alone played at all? velu, express bowling, Bleed-Blue and 3 others 6

Both of them got plenty of chances, which they squandered. Instead of blaming anyone else, they should have introspected and asked themselves if they genuinely deserve to be in the team. Gambhir's last 4 Test innings were 4,18,0,3 - hardly earth-shattering. And Yuvraj was the reason why we lost the 2014 World T20 despite being the best team throughout the tournament. Yet, Yuvraj got more chances up until the last T20 World Cup, in which he wasn't very effective either. In fact, on the contrary, I would say that Dhoni as captain kept a lot of dead weight around and did not ring in the changes that were sorely needed. Ankit_sharma03 1
gattaca Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 (edited) This is confusing so dhoni dropped seniors from the team shown in his biopic. But selectors dropped gauti and yuvi. One of them is wrong. Edited September 22, 2016 by gattaca express bowling 1

BeautifulGame Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 Sandpeep Patil is now no more selector.So will say anything to get into limelight.P probably also bitter that overlooked for the coach role. So whether true or not , better to take everything he says with pinch of salt.

N most imp those guys were failing and were no asset in field to sscomp32 1
jusarrived Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 Dhoni has got blamed for dropping a player one day and persisting/picking the same player next day ..some times its the same people who make these accusations lol sscomp32 and velu 2

Malcolm Merlyn Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 The idiot former chief selector is trying hard to be relevant.He keeps giving stupid statements.

MCcricket Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 Mr Dhoni kept the same loosing team n players were benched eternally so it is his choice n not selectors, Patil is being polite n politically correct
