Dhoni - fitting captain
by Vidhya on Sep 25, 2007 12:01 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

In the real sense, Dhoni befits captaincy just as Ganguly did though it might be a little premature to celebrate it so highly.Dhoni infuses positive energy on the field just as Ganguly did.he is fierce just as Ganguli was.he trusts his team just as Ganguli did.he constantly interacts with the team and engages in mid field discussions on the field just as Ganguly did.Ganguly was a great great captain but lost it for no explicable reason.his support and guidance will be needed by Dhoni, at least initially, to settle and excel in captaincy.With all due respects to Dravid as a player and a captain,we know that it is now time for us to wholeheartedly support dhoni.Hail Ganguly and Dhoni.

Ganuly is true fighter . Likwise , Dhoni & boys are also true fighter.Under Ganguly, India reached 5-6 important final including world cup2003,but could win only Netwest final mainly due to Yvui & Kaif when first 5-6 wicket cheaply ,still they could score 300 odd runs.
Ganguly has built the core team with youngsters ( at that time) like Yuvi, Pathan, Bhajji,Sehwag, Ghambir, Zahir,Balaji who played their heart out for India.
The many of the same players Yuvi, Pathan ,Gambhir have contributed heavily for 20-20 World cup victory.
Hence a great and large hearted Captain like Ganguly can only priase ,abudding captain Dhoni ,as we can see Ganguly's Image in Dhonis style.
