[zabalestmsm]

Salute to Dhoni. What a fighter.

 

[Justcrazy]

India need to use last three overs here.

 

[Syed2015]

Will be interesting too see, if De Kock can translate his wicketkeeping performance to his batting today.

 

[Justcrazy]

Dhoni refusing singles.

 

[Syed2015]

 

[Syed2015]

Correction: :

 

[Syed2015]

Dhoni takes the sole responsibility again by refusing singles. Lets look if it works out

 

[Syed2015]

 

[zabalestmsm]

Amazing crowd.

 

[Varun]

Bit like Chennai 2012 vs Pakistan, this Dhoni century.

How are you so certain this is going to be a century?

 

[Syed2015]

Impressive stuff from Rabada!

 

[Syed2015]

So looks like Rabada again won the contest.

 

[Smbhayi]

Dhoni style finish, after a long time

 

[Syed2015]

Finished with a

 

[Raw deal]

How come dhoni keeps playing such innings? incredible....!!

 

[JibranAnsari]

What a great last over by Rabada.

 

[Smbhayi]

If we get Amla earlier, we can win this one.. ABCD will be clean bowled by Axar

 

[Sandeep]

Dhoni's innings, at his worst phase in career..

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Bit like Chennai 2012 vs Pakistan, this Dhoni century.

Yeah thats what i was thinking

 

[jusarrived]

I dont think Dhoni has been in bad form all his career , the past 1 year is probably his biggest low & is unfortunate that ours fans let him down so badly in this phase . we dont have batsmen to replace him , let alone a Wk-bat , what kind of hatred is this ? Pathetic bunch . I bet it wont stop with Dhoni , Virat will have a even harder time once he takes over completely .

 

[Slog]

Great recovery job by India

Dhoni rolled back the years

 

[Mobashir]

How did Umesh Yadav missed out?
Scored 128 out in his last FC game out of 119 with 7 sixes.

[MENTION=137564]Enforcer[/MENTION] bhai where are you? I think you are not watching match

I just switched off the TV when the 5th wicket fell and went outside. Brilliant Batting from Dhoni though.

 

[Dee1990]

Total way below par but it was good to see a fighting innings from Dhoni.

 

[soso_killer]

They have tried a few , I think Maclerean was good.

too weak as a bat thou though, it becomes worse when he has an off day with the bat.

 

[samplepiece]

I think Dhoni needs to bat 4 as he doesnt have the power game anymore but is good enough as an accumulator and at rotating strike. Kohli needs to move up to 3 and Rahane needs to be replaced by some young player who can hit a few at number 6/7.

Also scored 90 off 66 balls in Australia.


A Steyn bouncer outdid him. That pull off the previous Steyn bouncer for 4 was good though.

Its Time to kick out Dhawan. What wrong Rahane did? Dhawan was a failure in Bangladesh, in T20s, and now in the last two ODIs. It is apparent that he only scores in ICC championship. Normal ODI matches are not for him.

Rahane should play as an opener.

Didn't watch the match.

But from scorecard it looks like amazing knock.

But from scorecard it looks like amazing knock.

As i told you, the other day. He can be damn good while batting at no.4. Just that he lost the ability to start hitting from the ball 1.

Let's look at a good sample set and see.

Will be happy to be wrong.

Regardless my comment on middle order still stands. You can have either Dhawan or Rahane open with Rohit but we need a new Yuvraj in the middle order. And I dont see Rahane winning us ODIs so will stick to Dhawan or look beyond both.

I have told a million times , you move up the order it gets easier to bat . Rahane looks better at 3 than 4 , Virat is struggling at 4 , Rohit who couldnt buy a run at 5 actually looks like a good batsmen(but hes not) .

 

[JibranAnsari]

Two slips in now , attacking by Dhoni

 

[Nikhil_cric]

He was set batsman , poor shot.

I know bro. It just sounded funny that's all: P .

 

[Syed2015]

Duminy created some habit of starting his innings with a four.

 

[Justcrazy]

India have tightened the screws here.

 

[Syed2015]

Oh, just realized it was the second ball

 

[Justcrazy]

Bhajji bowling slow flighting well.

[#GreenRoars]

Epic knock by my man Dhoni.. He gave a little hope to Indian bowlers, now all depends on them.

 

[Bilal7]

Today has been such a great day for me personally, Alhamdulillah.

Seeing Amla's average fall below any of his team-mates for the first time in years sucks though.

 

[Syed2015]

Yadav expensive so far : 4 0 36 0 9.00

 

[#GreenRoars]

Lol, Axar is getting wickets

[zabalestmsm]

Behardien has improved a lot. Looks really confident when he is batting nowadays.

 

[#GreenRoars]

SA already choking, but i hope India won't do something like this.
