Media in australia rose the undramatic issue to team India who is already injured with losses. They are wounding them witn rumours that there is disputes among players in team India over the captaincy. They are saying that team had divided over the captaincy and many of them favouring shewag to be the new captain replacing dhoni.
Australian newspaper had printed that tnere is gap between the team mates and dhoni is not getting support from his player. Even it is told that haddin had noticed that player are getting over each other.
What you fellow mylotter think about it? Does team India in trouble over leadership? Are they fighting for new cpatain? What your opinion?

As per me,its all Austraila media hype. If a team loss in few matches then there always be some comments and bad news arose. And then I don't see any interest within shewag to take capataincy.
Dhoni had proved himself as a leader, its not about leadership issue. Still Indians try to find the solutions for seaming attacks of australia. Hope coming matches they will do better and came out of these conterverises. No need to panic at this situation.
Good luck for Indian cricket team.

Its just a media hype. They just want to bring down the morale of India and Indian fans. I didn't see any problem with Dhoni's captaincy in the present Australian tour. We lost both the matches because of the failure of the batsmen and Dhoni cant do anything about it if our batsmen fail. Our bowlers did well in the two matches. There would have been a problem with Dhoni's captaincy if he had not taken a right call in the match or if he placed wrong placements in the field or if he had wrong choice of bowlers. But that all worked fine with India

Australian Media gets behind it's team and backs it to hilt at start of important series, and has often indulged in such cheap news campaigns, spreading false rumors propaganda to demoralize the visiting teams. Aussies fascination with "mental disintegration" of their opposition teams is nothing new.
So, now when their team is doing well. Aussies media hyping, creating needless controversies, trying to give impression that all is bad in opposition ranks and everything great with Aussie setup. It is all so naive, childish attempt that doesn't wash. Indian fans and viewers are smart enough to know it. Only problem is Indian media loves playing it up not realizing they help opposition cause, showing Indian players in bad light, when they should have supported the Indian team.
I am pretty sure if Indian Team comes back strong in Perth Test, playing with pride such stories of Indian Team not gelling well, captaincy problems and so on would be history. Cheers!

Hey this issue was rose once in past i don't know exactly when then also same issue was there it way way before world perhaps 2 years ago. Then also plyers want shewag to captain this time it is same.
I think as there is spark then there must be fire somewhere. While team is lossing this news will hurt all fans of INDIA as well as of those Dhoni. People of INDIA were hopign that they will win the match and bring cheers to people of INDIA.
To matter i don't think Dhoni will step down so easily even thers is conflcit or disputes between the players. I hope every thign settle out soon ans we progress to win the match. I hope the player will unite and play with full to win the match. There is much need to avoid these things and get on the game.

Hey Rahuld dravid and Shewag said that these are just rubbish and there is no truth in the statement.
See shewag statement here
'When teams start losing then these kind of things come, but there is nothing true in that," Sehwag told the Age. "We are playing as a team, and we are fine. I can't talk about anything else because there are rules, but you asked me about this and I can say it is rubbish. We are a unit, and we are carrying on for the next Test.'
what dravid had to says.
"When you are down 2-0, all these things happen," he said. "Suddenly there's all sort of stuff floating around. There is absolutely no truth to any of these things. Like I said, the spirit in the team is pretty good."
Meanwhile Gavaskar said that there is problem in team and even senior player are not supporting Dhoni when the time to sort him warm him to apply diffrent things when all going wrong. He said that dhoni is not getting interaction which he need from player.

Its always been a strategy for Australia that the create some negative hype about India in media and diverting their mind from the original game. So sometimes they create a symond-bhajji war or somtime they even attack Sachin.
As far the issue is captaincy, they are saying that Sehwag is creating dividation in team. But Sehwag was never so hungry for captaincy. Even when they elected him as a captain in previous series he commented that board should consider someone younger as a captain.
Sehwag is not performing well in the current series already. By attacking him the Australin media is ensuring to keep him under pressure so that he not be able to bounce back.
