Hey sup? Was just reading the comments you guys have written so far... very insightful indeed. However you guys should really work on your language skills and grammar... use of tenses, prepositions and sentence structuring is appealing really!

Anyways coming back to the IPL i feel bringing in Gony for the final 3 matches including today's match against Punjab, will be a fruit bearing move for the CSK. He was brilliant last season and may prove very effective at this stage. I wonder why he sitting on the bench. Is he injured or something?

Also the batting order is outstanding with Hayden as usual leading from the front. Apart from the bowling i feel fielding should be worked on as well to compensate for the poor bowling from time to time.

Dhoni is Talented - But nowadays became too cautious in batting (He should be the fire power of batting lineup - because there are other cautious players already in the line up .. i.e. Badrinath and Parthiv Patel

Venky, u r wrong... we all know how Dhoni was b4 becoming captain, but we r saying his slow batting style in ODIs and specially in T20s are becoming the big negative cause to his team...! He should think that he is not playing Test match...!!! in T20... uhave no time to start slowly and then go after the bowls... we have seen many times the batsman are getting out who starts their innings slowly and try to acclerate the run rate later... so if a batsman takes 20 balls to make 10 runs and then get himself out... it is a negative cause to his team and that is totally useless... which Dhoni is doing now a days that's why he is useless! He should change his thinking about T20 cricket and for ODIs also... okay in ODI try to rotate the strike if your team loses 3-4 earlier wickets but in that case Dhoni is never doing good when top order fails in ODIs, we saw it in Asia Cup 2008 Final, again in the Final match against Pakistan in Bangladesh in 2008 and many more matches he couldn't win matches if top order fails... it is Sehwag, Gambhir, Sachin and Yuvraj's performance by which Dhoni is winning the matches u can't under-estimate the performance by the bowlers like Zaheer and Bhajji also, in Sri Lanka this year Yuvraj, Sehwag and Gambhir along with Zaheer, Praveen Kumar and Bhajji won the series for India, Dhoni did nothing...!!! In Australia in 2007 VB series Final.. in both Finals Sachin made a century and a 90+ runs and a good bowling performance by Pravin Kumar India beat Aussies in their home for the 1st time.. in that series also... Dhoni did nothing...! he never made a century after become captain and only 3 times he made half centuries where only 1 time India won when he scored a half-centry that is in Sri Lanka in this year and that was happened after India already had won the series!!! Dhoni always hopes that Viru and Gambhir should give him the platform and they are doing on maximum times also but if they don't do in 1 or 2 matches he should play good... u can't hope that a batsman can bat good always for his captain.. 1 or 2 ocasions it is normal that a good batsman also can be fail... but whenever India or CSK loosing the matches Dhoni blames either the bolwers or the top order batsmen.. he never thinks that he is also a batsman and he should play sensible cricket with good strike rate above or equal to 100.00 to win ODIs and T20s.

Yuvi is krak for Australians I know because he started his career against Aussies with a brilliant 84 and after that he has been a dangerous customer always against Australians he scored his first century both in Tsts and in ODIs against the Aussies, so it is normal for Aussies to become jealous on Yuvi and hate him also! by the way Yuvi is a real crack and crazy when he plays against England too and T20 cricket favours Yuvi because hi hit 6 sixers in an over in this very version, he had 2 hatricks in this version too, these all are world records... so yes Yuvi is krak for oppositions!

I said what if Gayle is in KKR team because u said if Hayden wopuld played the match... we could do better... but Maharajan is right to say that Hayden also may got out on a duck... as u say Gayle also could got out on duck... so don't make the excuses after loose...! If Chennai would won the match u would not passed such foolish comment, Don't say that an abscent player would do better.. otherwise it seems that all the other players bought by India cement (CSK owner) are just craps in CSK team and only Hayden is a batsman? Hayden is injured and it is happening often in cricket now a days, so forget the thing which is not with you and try to do better with what u have, then only u will be successful, see even without a modern-cricket's brilliant batsman Pietersen.. Bangalore is winning.. even the most dangerous batsman of current day's cricket Virender Sehwag not performing but the Daredevils are winning... without T20's most destructive batsman Yusuf Pathan's performance Rajasthan won 3 matches...!!!

Maharajan — Wed, 20 May 2009 03:49:23 -0000

Max.... even though u answered my comment but still u look like a stupid and ur comment look like bull-shit! I didn't ask u why Dhoni took single in the last over.. I just made a criticize of the bad thinking of Dhoni..okay..!!! I didn't say u asked Dhoni to take singles... but u answered like an idiot...! Saha was not extra-ordinary thru the torunament but his extra-ordinary batting in that particular match helped his team to win and that day they were so dedicated that they wouldn't care even if Hayden would have played the match... it seems that Hayden was never out on duck when he was batting succesfully? Don't forget the debut match of Irfan Pathan... Hayden played fantastically in the first Test's both innings with double century and a half century but even though in the 2nd Test Irfan got his first Test wicket on his debut by getting Hayden out on a duck! At the end... I want to say that it was Kolkata Knight Riders' day that day, no 1 could stop them to win that match even 5 batsmen like Hayden couldn't stop them from acheiving their target... God made that day as their day because cricket depend upon luck also as well as talent, otherwise Sachin Tendulkar would make century in every match he plays and never get out on a Duck as he is the king of centuries in the bothe Test and ODI version of cricket!

Dhoni has been very polite to their team from the Match-1 but this the time that he has no other options rather than blowing out his feelings....He is harsh sometimes but then its part of his duty.

Tell u what Dhoni is a Professor of the University where all other cricketers are just students

I will accept that his batting performance is not upto the mark compared to that of when he was not a captian. ..... But what to do thats what our indian captiancy is.......... Here captians seldom performs well.............

other wise he is good............ The best thing about Dhoni is he keenly observes every game , every player.....................and his calculations and decisions based on that ...................

There may be some mistakes in decisions like you have mentioned above........... those are here and there....... afterall he is also a human...........

He is not in the golden horse just for now........ he was in there for sufficiently long time..... if it was by luck.... He couldn't be there for this long time..................

Wait and see......... Dhoni will mean a lot in future............

hey i dont agree with you.....India is winning under dhoni regularly and luck wont help u everytime.....he is having the ability to lead the team and has a great think over the game....

He is putting the responsibilities in his shoulder and leading from the front.....

Blaming others like you is very easy and executing is difficult.............

It is important for Dhoni to learn from Shane Warne and avoid harsh criticism of team members. Morale is important if the team wants to be victorious.

Maharajan... See firstly I dont support CSK ok, I am just talking as an outsider.
Ur saying Maybe Hayden could have gone for a duck,what if he didnt.
So far in IPL2 its been Hayden, Raina, Dhoni who have batted well. The others have hardly chipped in the other games that is If u have seen the matches so far???
What SAHA's extraordinary batting when has he batted well in IPL2.
What am I suppose to do if Dhoni took singles, what u think I asked him to take singles or what. Who said I'm complaining, we all should agree that CSK were playing with their not-best-team. So keep ur bull-shit comment to ur self.

Max — Tue, 19 May 2009 10:29:22 -0000

So u r saying what if chris gayle was playing but he was not.
Maharajan... thinks Hayden could have gone for a duck then
who knows even gayle could have gone for a duck.
McCullam fine if gayle had played then may be Hodge would not have
played as we have seen earlier. So please dont make such unthoughtful stupid
comments such as "what if". I said "If" Hayden played then it would have been good. And any ways why r u getting so ANGRY over some game like that.
U r saying Gayle is a good bowling, but according to his IPL2 statistics it is surely not proved.

Venky — Tue, 19 May 2009 10:24:41 -0000

Dhoni has just changed his role from being a blaster to being an anchor man. Any form of cricket needs a partnership. We all know what he is capable of(Dont forget his batting style before he became a captain) and what he can do on his day. He just wants to stay there and make others play. Calling him useless show that you know very little of cricket and not matured enough to make a comment about it.

I dnt know why dhoni keeping Oram in the 11. He is not given ball to bowl, no chance to bat. he is international player. why dhoni avoiding him by not giving him ball. He his exp bowler. last time he opened bowling attack. Dhoni has to use everyone in the 11. He giving few to important avoiding others
