I was surprised when Dhoni was made the vice captain. I was expecting Yuvraj in those shoe. I also feel Yuvraj is more matured than Dhoni and has got consistent performance. So why is Dhoni made vice captain? Do you think it is the right move?

In fact, I am also surprised to see Dhoni as vice-captain rather than Yuvraj Singh. Even though, Yuvraj Singh is consistent recently, I worry that he may not retain his place always. If he fails in one or two matches, then his place might be taken away by someone like Dinesh Mongia. That might have went against Yuvraj. Dhoni's place is guaranteed more as a wicket-keeper. Also, Yuvraj might have got a negative vote from the cricket board as he spoke against the coach just after the world cup.

And more over Yuvraj is also known for partying late nights. He got to display more discipline

Yes,That true that Yuvraj Singh is more matured player than Dhoni and also has qualities of a gool leader but maybe M.S Dhoni would be made as vice captain to bring some conidence into him.

I dont think there should be a problem in making Dhoni as vice captain.Eventhough he is less experienced in international cricket than Yuvi,he has well matured enough to be a vice-captain.I would support him even for the captain post.

Dhoni as vicecaptain can function well because he had some experience with his colleaugues. and yuvraj will be better than dhoni.
