You cannot win a war just like that. Not only you should have a perfect army for that but also you should have a perfect leader who can lead from the front. The leader has to give proper instructions to his soldiers and also marshal his resources well. Moreover Proper changes in strategies have to be made at the right juncture of time. Only if these formalities are fulfilled, we get the perfect army which has the courage to fight till the last. Cricket, now a days is nothing less than a war. A perfect leader is required in the form of the captain who has to marshal his players to fight the strategies made by the opposition. At the crucial juncture during the phase of the match he should be positive enough to take rash decision which may or may not work. If Dhoni is a big name in the Indian cricket, it is because of the positive energy he has given to the Indian cricket not only as a player but also as a captain. When he won the bilateral series against Srilanka, he became the first Indian captain to win nine ODI’s in succession. To be noted, four other captains have won eight ODI’s in succession – Sunil Gavaskar, Kapil Dev, Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid. As an Indian cricket fan, I feel extremely lucky that my team has Dhoni as the captain. He has been dynamic not only as a player but also as a captain.
