India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni has his final chat with the media at the conclusion of the third Test in Melbourne, but gives nothing away about his shock retirement
Msd's eyes are telling everything that what is going inside him.He is just holding his tears and preparing himself for a bigger decision to make with a stone on his heart.
Only Dhoni could decide when its time to go but in my opinion he had at least 3-4 more years of test cricket ahead of him. Its tough being keeper in tests though. Hats off to one of the greatest captains India ever produced.
Dhoni is the a master Strategic ! Chanakya of Cricket. May not be the best guy in terms of technique but mentally he is the calmest (strongest). He always knew that he isn't the best in terms of test cricket, may be that's why he hinted his test retirement way back in Jan 2012.
I would specify he is master of strategy in Limited overs cricket. He is one of the most defensive, boring and pathetic captain in test cricket. He has most pathetic record in away tests as a captain in the history of the game. Whether you like it or not “facts don’t care about your feelings. “
Tejas Jani well thn uh shd know dt he is d most consistent captain too for india nd d only captain 2 win all icc trophies under his captainship...Dnt spread useless hatred

Bada se bada player bhi lalach me aa Jaata h 100 test khelne k liye, bhut badi baat h, par tu unme se nhi..... Salute krta hu dost
Wow, must be a treat for journos around the world with the way MSD speaks at press conferences. Funny, thoughtful, calm and no tantrums. The calm before the storm, the retirement decision. What a professional, didnt even give a hint of what was going to happen in next 15 mins. Admire MSD for this, thanks Captain :-)
This man quitting captaincy is not going to solve the overseas woes of India, at least that is what I think. I thought, the losses had more to do with experience and we were almost in the threshold of shrugging losses off when this man quit. This is loss of a good leader and it has to be a great loss which will take some time to overcome. If I were to give a piece of my mind, Kohli is not as good a leader as Dhoni. As a keen viewer, I saw what Dhoni tried in those matches which India lost. He tried every permutation and combination. The fields he tried were brilliant, but to no effect. No matter what anybody says, we are forgetting a man's contribution. For me, there won't be another long haired assasin wicket-keeper batsman, for me there won't ever be another underdog World Cup winner, for me there won't be another MSD.
He said this in 2014 that KL is a brilliant cricketer and he needs some time to prove himself and from the past 3 years we are seeing the best of KL. First Virat then Rohit and now KL. MS has shaped the Indian cricket for the present when he was the captain and for the future as well when he is retired. No doubt a Legend!❤️
Ishant Sharma told why he walked away, because he knew if he was there Saha will never get a chance.. A man who put his 100th test to rest so that Saha could get better chances and get seasoned. That defines Dhoni. The legend...🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@krishnarudani9449 The man who was captain of the team that brought India the first ICC test Championship in 2010, taking the reign from the mighty Australia, should not be termed as "Not a good one" He deserves much more than that
@@as-sabahossain9099 in the start as a captain, be was best. But check his 2013-14 records. his performance as a captain as well as a captain was not that appealing. Check his overseas captaincy records just before retirement.
@@krishnarudani9449 Dhoni integrated the mentality of players to face adversities, from when he was selected as a captain and from where he left the team, speaks for itself. In terms of records, stats Ricky Ponting will always be the better captain than Steve Waugh, but even Ricky Ponting will not even dare to match him. As Viral has said "Dhoni will always be my captain" I rest my case. I respect your opinion, and I can understand your points, so let us agree to disagree. In the end we all are lover of the beautiful game, in our own way.
It's been so many years since he retired from test cricket,but as every cricket fan & more importantly as every Dhoni Fan, I still feel he should have not retried from playing test cricket atleast for few more years ,we respect his decision & his reasons behind this decision but still feel there was lots of test cricket left in him , could have left d test captaincy but retiring from d test cricket still hurts & there's still immense cricket left in him... One can still fill d vaccum that got created when he retired & that vacuum is still d same & is not filled yet & never will b....His presence is still missed in d Indian squad in all d formats..!!!... We Miss u Captain cool,we miss u Thala & will always miss u legend ❤️🙏🙌🙌🙌
Good to see that some of my Pakistani friends like humanityisislam have shared their respect to a good cricketer like MSD being a cricket lover and not getting indulged in political affairs which most of the people get influenced with while commenting (mostly India vs Pakistan comments). I think as sensible and rational individuals we should respect the game and the great bearers of this game and bid them a respectful goodbye no matter from which country they belong! No Indian can deny the fact that we still get amazed and love some of the Pakistani greats like Imran Khan (the cricketer), Wasim Akram, Shoaib Akhtar (even after his comments on Sachin), Inzamam, etc (to name a few) and we secretly wish Indian team comes up with fast bowlers at least 70% as good as them! :) My dear friends, lets not talk like enemies when we talk about cricket, as if we are true cricket lovers, we should love the game and not indulge in hateful comments towards others religion, country etc. Peace :)
His eyes really have those unspoken words !!!! Yaah !! It is more than 5 overs he now even retired from international cricket, why are you crying ??? 😭😭
@@kruthiktk7131 well u need more focus in lstng.. He said he is an opner and a top order batsmen also he is doing well in nets as well thatsy he is promoted... As I know he opened in one day in t20 at that time.. Also rahil didn't do well at that test match on wch he said we should not come to conclusion on just one performance so of course the capabilities he is talking about is related to t20 from where rahul got in limelight
@@kruthiktk7131 are you dumb Or wat... First u have problem in lstng now u can't even understand wats written lol😂😂 visit your eng teacher to understand
Pakistans last Tour of Australia in 2009-2010 . They lost 4-0 in test and 5-0 in ODIs . They lost the T20 aswell when Afridi was hungry so he ate the ball .
Team Management, Shastri plan, Kohli's decision , Hardik's overconfidence, Pant's lack of experience and promoting Dhoni in lower order 7. This is what lost the WORLD CUP.
@@bittuking8501 Bhai ro Diya tha mn office mn. Sab set tha hum world sure jit jate. U can't blame Rohit Dhawan Kohli always. Jab time Aya Hardik as a senior maturity nai dikhaya bas show off isliye chutiya lgta hai. Karthik jise sirf ek match khelyaa aur usko tail ender hitter jaisa prepare Kiya tournament keliye after Nidhas Trophy usko upar bhej diye. Pant Jo ABI 20 Saal Ka hai wo already nervous Hoga and that too semi final. Bas wahi pe Dhoni ana chaiye tha and Rest Jaddu match win Kar leta ya Karthik finish Kar Deta. Dhoni slow hai Dhoni slow hai Dhoni slow hai yehi chutiya budhi
Honestly, While I congratulate MS Dhoni on a fantasitc career, I think it was in the best interest of the Indian team that he did. this is a really really good Indian team I really believe that. There Top half of the batting Order is very Talented and this new aggressive running between wickets and improved fielding maybe learnt from the inception of the IPL, and I think its great for them. But the last 2 test I've seen Dhoni make some questionable decsions when India were in the lead in the game. I think this team is more than capable of beating this AUS side, But it needed New leadership.
LOL inception of IPL? Yeah. It only took 8 years for that IPL to have an effect. That sure was quick. Everyone knows the aggression is because of Shastri's inclusion.
Krawna Maybe but Im just comparing the team that toured a couple of years ago, mainly filled with players of an older generation to this one that has come in with a newer iideologyof the game
Krisna Siv Good leadership skills cannot help much if the bowlers are not picking up wickets and the entire middle order and tail is collapsing in every other test match. At the end of the day, it's gotta be about the cricket played. The reason Ganguly is called a 'better' test captain than Dhoni is because he had world-class players like Sachin, Dravid, Laxman, Kumble, Harbhajan, Zaheer, etc who helped win overseas, not because Dhoni is himself a 'worse' captain than Ganguly.
Looming Dawn I dont see it that way. To me the job as a captain is to take what you have and make them as good as side as you can and that means utilising there strengths. Im thinking in this particular series where the Indians seemed content on trying to get Haddin out playing a hook shot for a long stretch of time by bouncing him pretty much every ball. I don't think there Dhoni was fully utilising what the strength of his attack was. And the argument that its because India lost many world class players. Thats your job as a captain in my opinion and its not like it isn't possible, look at Ricky Ponting who saw the passing of the worlds best Openers in Langer and Hayden, The best Keeper Batsman in Gilchrist, One of the Best Seemers in Mcgrath and One of the Greatest Spinners in Warne and he still managed to have a reasonable win percentage. As a captain your job is to take your team and make them better and I don't feel Dhoni is up to the task anymore.
MSD lost 7 players, sehwag, gambhir, dravid, srt, vvs, zak, harbajan. Tho only dravid, srt and vvs can be called great, the othrs wer very good. What u say is theoretically nice to hear, but u cant fail to acknowledge the fact that wen ganguly took up captaincy, he had srt, dravid, vvs , kumble, srinath, nayan mongia. All of whom had been on atleast one tour to Aus, Eng(not vvs), RSA, NZ, WI. Srt, kumble, srinath hv toured ther more than once, and had been in the team for almost 8-10 years. And ganguly too lost in RSA, SL, NZ, Lost a test in Zim and drew the series (shares record with misbah), lost at home to aus, and unlike no other team post 2000, lost a series to a heavily depleted WI, that too with a phenomenal team. That said, i do concede that he never had the kind of bowlers that Ponting, or even Pakistan had in the 90s(which ws instrumental in them winning twice in eng, nz , etc. ). The level of skill in the team inherited by ganguly was so great, and his contributions wer minimal. Yes the headingly, brisbane knocks wer very good, but ppl give him credit for making waugh wait for the toss which in my opinion is utter rubbish. MSD has waded out sehwag, gambir, harbajan, and all, backed vijay, rahane, (and initially evn kohli in 2011). In a way he has put together a team that has quite a bit of touring experience.
We all watch him play , we watched his press conferences and so we try to to understand what makes him so good at the game but believe me we can never ever get into his head , what he thinks about the game and how he handle the game , we can't understand. But whatever he does on and off the field we can only say that he is a true genius of the game like Einstein was of physics. It's like a genius is telling a story to us and we are listening to him , not understanding anything only listening and enjoying his precence.
No matter who the captain is, India will not be able to win a test match overseas until we have bowlers who are capable of taking 20 wickets in a match. Till then, our best bet is to take 11 batsmen, out of which 5-7 can bowl average as well. Still, Dhoni tried his best to not get the worst result and settle for a draw, which is more than what the present bowling attack is capable of. He is still hated and mocked. Not one person has said anything about the bowlers. We have not got the Ozzies all out in any of the 8 innings they played. Horrible
Good captain needs a good team.. post world cup india was in transition.. zaheer n fab four almost on the verge of retirement... so post 2011 u can't blame dhoni for the losses... u stratezise according to ur strengths...
Ms dhoni is best captain india has ever its my view .india has many succesful captains like gavaskar,kapiral dev,azharuddin,saurav ganguly,but dhoni is dhoni. Any condition on fields dhoni is there,we are in the match under any circumstances. Dhoni he abhi
