How far it is correct India choosing to field first in the first two super eight matches with not so better bowling attack compared to that of Australia and West indies ?
There is no doubt that India's strength is in batting therefore they should have chosen to bat first to put a decent score on the board without under undue pressure and restricted the opponents thereafter.
What do you say..

i think we should belive on our strength and bat first.
india lost the two matches in super8 by chasing under pressure.
its fair to bat first, but the rain factor is making some problem for dhoni.

I am not sure about the second match,but when playing against Australia go with your strength.Generally Dhoni loves to put a target and cause the pressure while bowling.May the coach should have thought the other way,in that match.
but the second match,there was some rain,our bowlers boweld well in the first six overs and the part timers and jadeja let us down.
I wonder what he will do with Srilanka,also the batting order should change.

Batting first is the right option. We lose the two matches for batting 2nd. So Dhoni should choose batting first.
