For how long you are going to defend this guy?
When Dhoni came to the crease, the required run rate was somewhere around 8 runs per over, and it was very much possible for India to win the match. But he failed to score even at a rate of one run per ball. Only when the required run rate got out of hand and got to 12-13 runs per over, he started hitting all those sixes and fours.
Hilarious. You people act like you understand the conditions perfectly as if you could have done a better job out there. The Indian bowlers(Chahal and Kuldeep) messed up their bowling lengths and Kohli and Rohit scored just 28 runs in the first 10.
MSD literally gave it his best and almost scored a brisk 50, but everyone thinks that this is IPL where he could have magically scored 100+ runs from 60 balls against a quality bowling lineup. How stupid can you people get?
Dhoni and team did not try to chase at all. There were seven dots, twenty singles, three fours, one six in 31 balls (the last 5 overs of the Indian innings). Not to mention out of this Dhoni did try to win the match in the last over by hitting a 6 and a 4 , when the required rate was 44 runs and there was surety that the match cannot be won by India.
Everyone can clearly see the Pakistan and Bangladesh supporters go crazy because India lost, but under-estimating England just because they lost a match or two is foolishness. Stop depending on others teams like India to progress forward. Focus on improving your own game first.
