hi friends.sure we wont be seeing dhoni in the next match too. well what about yesterday's match?
[b]did any of you missed Dhoni?
well you have to find a captain as well as wicket-keeper batsmen
i thought sehwag did an exceptional job as a captain by bringing the fielders in like short cover and short midwicket for most part of the match and shuffling his bowlers and giving young ishant to feel good by giving him another spell
well karthick is as usual over excited.missed a run out,almost missed a stumping chance but otherwise ok.but hey even Dhoni cant be called a very good keeper.he is good.
as for replacing him as captain,well he played better but not very challenging.
as for me,i didnt miss Dhoni.
what about you?[/b]

I really didnt missed dhoni.though karthick is freeky,but he did a good job.overall it was a team perfomance,that contributed in every aspect of game.
sehwag has those captaincy skills,that he utilised well and at the end made it easy.he has experience,not enough in international matches,but in domestic cricket he has captained his side on a regularly basis.
The indian team,at the moment is such that we wont miss any player,if he is out.we have bunch of players who does well and have the calibure to be in the side in a year or so.

actually dhoni is gr8 and good, but in 3rd odi the team performed well under viru.
viru manged team so beautifully that no one really feel the absence of dhoni.
in the start i thought match is goin down in lankans favour but viru shuffled the bowlers well and played attacking cricket.
in batting india is strong enough than any other team in world, so miss of a single batsman dont cause much.
in keeping i felt that karthik was not as good as dhoni, but no problem

It proved that there is no need of Dhoni. Karthik is very Good Keeper than Dhoni. His batting too looks like he is playing responsibly. Where as Dhoni missing many catches and stumpings. His batting too looks like he is playing carroms or cricket. But, his captaincy is good. But, he is not putting fielders in good and correct position. Hence, there is no need to feel that Dhoni is missed in 3rd ODI..
