Dhoni reminds Kirsten of Cronje

[SciD]

Indian coach Gary Kirsten has likened the country`s ODI captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni`s ability to extract the most out of his players to that of late Hansie Cronje, under whom the former South African opener had played in international cricket.

Kirsten felt Anil Kumble, the Bangalore stalwart who leads India in Tests commanded great respect from his team, but the swashbuckling wicketkeeper-batsman from Ranchi was more charismatic as he could get the best out of his team.

And that Kaarthik is an awesome batsman capable of demolishing attacks. The only reason he's not a regular is plain politics.

 

[shravi]

amen to that !! :hpraise

Why are you happy about that!?

 

[SaiSrini]

why do you guys argue with opinions?

if kirsten feels dhoni reminds him of cronje, its his opinion. if ian chappell feels rohit sharma could be the next sachin, its his opinion. they have the medium to voice out their opinions unlike us (we voice it out within PC,they do it in television, newspapers, magazines, etc).

Surely arguing opinions is the whole point of a forum. What'd be the point if everyone agreed about everything ?

Yes, but it's rather fruitless to argue against the opinion of someone who obviously won't be reading about it.

I hope Kirsten doesn't fall for the media trap. He needs to stay away from them and do a background job.

So far, he has been low key about his work. I like it. Its been good so far. The non-attention can do good for him.
