A "SIX-SHOT" that may earn a permanent place in the memory...

Hi nishant So you left your Sunday for a game of cricket on Tele Bad. You should have taken bhabhiji out and have had some pav bhaji... more exciting than Indian cricket I dont have any interest in Indian Cricket, I dont have a television set and also I dont have my wife here today.... Too many reasons to miss that match Seriously, I wasnt even aware they were playing today.

The dramatic six and the inexplicable no ball that followed allowed India to win. Dhoni had till then done everything to avoid a win. Gambhir has openly said that he would not have left it to the last over, do we see a team dissent here? Hope they don't start sniffing a match -fix here, the no ball came out of the blue. The message is that all is not well with this Indian team but world cricket needs team India to do well. If Indian cricket lovers turn away from cricket the game of cricket will suffer very badly. So BCCI and ICC should take necessary measures to ensure that too much cricket is not played and whatever cricket is played is played in the right spirit. T-2o is indeed electric and a great spectacle but it will surely devour test cricket and ODI cricket. Even the players seem to be favoring one format over the other.

Well! well ! well ! Finally i see the indian player is hunger for win the match which last by indian captain dhoni with his ining, which seem is slow but the match wining inning, no doubt he finished the world cup match with six but this match six is so important because they win aus. in aus... No doubt today match indian player fielding is superb on the other hand aus has missed so many chance to collect the bowl correctly and giving indian player to run the mistake.. One thing more which seen in today match is Dhoni while in field look more aggressive than before, they continuous talking to the player and gives so many instruction which was missing in 1st match with aus.. So i thing now india team has good chance to win the series...

Yes, I saw the match and Dhoni's performance was good today where he hit that huge sixer which was a repeated scene of World Cup 2011 Final.

It's great to watch the caption taking the risk in his head, and lead the team to win. Untill this day the Best shoot of dhoni is World cup final six. But now this one is very huge, after very long frustration thoughts to the caption is come to an End from this Six.

I didn't aware of the match but when i woke up so late in mid day and then i came to know that there was match as i was in collge hostel in my friend room. As i came to know about the match i turn the mobile to check the score and it was almost all over. only 8 ball was going to bowled and INDIA need 13 runs to win with 6 wickets already gone. Dhoni was in there. Next resher, i saw quick 2 wickets fall and the target still was there. Then sudden sound rose in hostel i rereshe again i found dhoni hit six and that was great. As you say it was memorable and i mean it would be. I didn't see the match so i can't comment more but i feel good that Dhoni made the runs and bring victory.

hmmmm 13 off the last 6 deliveries which turned into 12 off 4 deliveries.a nail biter indeed. may be if dhoni had not taken 20 balls for 2 runs,the equation wouldn't had been this bad,isn't it? as for making bowler tired and winning it in the last over,he didn't retain strike in the last over. what if ashwin hit the first ball stright to bowler,get bowled the next ball,then zaheer getting out in another 2 deliveries,what dhoni would have done? being dramatic at the price of indian victory? i dont think so. why didn't he take risk earlier and let either raina or jadeja finish the match? a man ,who won the match for india,who came at the 35th over when india needed 92 off 96 deliveries,hit only 3 shot in his entire innings all came in the 50th over,one being the six-shot. if he is such a finisher,if he had the capacity,why didn't he leave it to the last? must be the captain Dhoni rubbing off on the batsman Dhoni who always things for the last. my first impression on seeing the six was jubilance which quickly turned into annoyance for waiting till last over to hit it. call it whatever one want but it doesn't change the fact that Dhoni manipulated the match situation so when and if india wins,he will be the one most talked about instead of gambhir or any other player. no sugar coating there.a new low for dhoni.

Hi nishant... I watched that shot and praised it but what do you think about the tied match of yesterday. Was Dhoni responsible for not getting the victory? have a nice time.

To add something to your nice topic , i would like to mention the another important six which Dhoni hit to win India series in WI,it came after India lost in t20 world cup and they were not in good form overall that time too.I wish that this inspiring shot will bring India back in good form, enough to win this important tournament.

I agree with you nishant. It was indeed a great shot, a record breaking shot. In Adelaid long on boundary is longer than that of square boundary and much longer than that of any other ground in the world. Players find it difficult to hit sixes on these Australian grounds as was found out by Kohli and Raina both got out trying to hit sixes. Those would have been sixes on grounds any where in the world. Dhoni not only cleared the boundary but sent the ball deep in the spectators gallery. That must have been one of the longest hit ever.
