is mahendra singh dhini is the oustanding oneday captain?

One can safely say YES! He has given enough hints that he has the man management powers & deep understanding of the game. Dhoni has achieved success with any combination given to him. Two recent happenings will highlight my point: 1). During the tour to Australia, team India was considered underdogs & inferior by a big margin to Australia. Dhoni's boys did the unthinkable. 2). After Team India was beaten black & blue By Mendis & co in test matches, dhoni took his brand of youngstes with hardly any experience in Srilanka & emerged victorious.

Yeah. Yeah. No doubt about that. He has acquired all that by himself. Cricket, movies and such are such fields where the merits are important. Someone proposing your name and you getting the credits for that has got no meaning in this field. He has the ability as well as the luck on his side. Fortune favours the brave they say. And so is about Dhoni. It is totally his own acquired credibility and deserves all this and much more. I wish him all the good luck for the future so that he takes India higher and still higher in this competitive international cricket.
