Dhoni - 'It's important to send the message across'

[sohum]

Hope We all stays here..It won't take long to clear the Future Picture..
I wish Dhoni also go with young legs in test also..

Why? Test cricket requires far more experience and knowledge of the game and things such as weak legs and fielding aren't as knowledgeable. It would be silly to throw in youngsters into Test cricket--almost Bangladeshi-like.

We better do poll for Sachin>>>>Cricket???
I think People from other countries will vote sachin more than his country mans..

Its individual..I can accept for one minute that Dhoni has hit Lee Cover drive but I never can accept that Sachin is not >>>Cricket..

Cricket is bigger than any one person. I can assure you that if you conduct such a poll, the results will overwhelmingly suggest the same.

You posted what I was about to post .

It's true though. Sachin will never be bigger than the game. A team comprises of 11 players and Sachin is just one of the pegs in the team.

It is because there are so many more people like you that talented crickters like Badrinath will never get a go. That, and regionalism. You have to be strong in your decision making. Victory is bigger than one person. Victory is bigger than you. Victory is bigger than Sachin. Victory is bigger than all the criticism that has come down Dhoni's alley.

Truth be told, victory is too big for Indians to handle. We complain when we win and complain when we lose. We always need something to moan about.

Tendulkar's inclusion in the squad was never debated. It was the selection of the youngsters and dropping of Dravid and Ganguly that caused controversy. This is why Dhoni had to adopt somewhat of an 'I told you so' mindset. Mind you, he shouldn't have to as the results speak for themselves but Indians always want more than they bargain for.
