After the recent debacle of Indian team in T20 Cricket World Cup, it has become a fashion in India to pin-point Dhoni as the real culprit for the defeat. It was undoubtedly a very embarassing loss but heaven has not fallen. What we must try to find out whether Dhoni was the real player behind the defeat or it was a team-failure or whether certain players felt that they were super players even though they were physically unfit to play. Dhoni was the Captain of the team and, no doubt, overall responsibilities are his. What would happen if he resigns. Is there any cricketer who is really deserving to become the Captain of Indian team?
BCCCI is simply shrugging off after holding the players as responsible.
We should give a serious thought to the debacle. However, instaed of ridiculing the players, we should try to boost-up their morale. BCCCI should find out the real reasons and make a new start.
MEDIA SHOULD TONE DOWN THEIR CRITICISMS. ANY WAY, WE CAN'T HELP IT HERE AS ANCHORS OF INDIAN MEDIA BEHAVE AS IF THEY ARE THE MOST KNOWLEDGABLE.

I think our media always go about knee jerk with it's reactions especially to cricketers. Especially the two channels where in two debate programs come over during the prime time. Both the debate conductors go overboard putting words into the mouth of the debaters and try to create controversy and keep shouting all the time "You agree, you agree!!". I have stopped watching these channels now and rather read the news on ESPN Star site which talk more on cricketing terms than all this masala about IPL parties etc.
As far as Dhoni is concerned, I think what is inhibiting him is these days he is thinking defensively. I think he should forget about the limitation of his team and go all about with his gut feeling. He was thinking of India's discomfort with bounce and that is why twice after winning the toss he chose to bowl first, unfortunately it only made the situation worse as the team was also chasing a huge total!! I think he needs to get back to his old cavalier ways of captaincy!!
Cheers!

All your views are absolutely correct. A correct criticism of cricket is seen no where. Not only when India fails, after its victory also BCCI must ovelook each game played by India for the errors and problems. Only then India will be always in the first place
