Good move
by GR on Sep 18, 2007 04:33 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

All said and done, I am glad the Indian selectors finally showed some courage and entrusted the captaincy to someone other than Tendulkar and Ganguly.

Hopefully, they'll show some more maturity and not judge Dhoni harshly if we lose against Aus and Pak. You bring in a young captain, he will need time to establish his authority in the team .. certainly a tough job when he has three superstars with much more experience in his team. Best of luck to Dhoni.

I just wish Yuvraj had not been given the vice-captaincy. Any time he is given a position of authority, he loses his head and becomes an arrogant pompous ass.

so my dear can u tell me when did it happen?????
when Yuvraj was v.captain in one day series in pakistan due to absence of sehwag he plated better than all d other 20 players of both teams
he can handle pressure better dan any of other indian players
mahendra singh dhoni was v.captain 4 england one dayers...and if u didn`t forget he had a very very very nonsense tour...
i dont get it how personal greats like 183 n.o ,most attacking batsman(only in home) can be made...2 remind all captaincy is not everyones ability...
sachin tendulkar,urguably one of d best cricketer ever produced by world cricket was d most unsuccessful captain....so wat bout dhoni????a loooooot 2 go/??
