From few days we have been gossiping through the controversies of Mahendra Singh Dhoni and his scouted lifecycle of drastic and dreadful living. He has been drowned under couple of rumors and tales. From the recent days of work he had become a chit chats of the common masses serving beneath the road level.

With the passage of two major phases of Dhoni’s living in 2010, his defeat in world cup 2010 and his success in DLF IPL3 have given a drastic blow to his cricket existence. Soon after winning the IPL matches the cricket board clearly announced that to accomplish success in such a giant game is purely a team labor and not just Mahendra Singh Dhoni’ s effort. On contrary, while losing in world cup was directly meaningful to Dhoni. Dhoni was the only one who was being blamed for all the consequences of the defeat.

Why Dhoni is being crushed for a mere defeat?

Why Sachin is never blamed for IPL defeat?

A long lasting DLF IPL, the third session was being organized at the motherland of India. There was couple of teams to participate with foreign players like Deccan Chargers, Kolkata Knight Riders, Mumbai Indians, Rajasthan Royals, Bangalore Royal Challengers and Chennai Super Kings. Crushing to all those immense teams Dhoni waved the championship of IPL specially by beating Mumbai Indians followed by Sachin Tendulakar.

Reading to above lines we clearly come to the conclusion that the board has made a partiality with Mahendra Singh Dhoni and favored Sachin.
Who could answer this?

Do cricket board supports Sachin, only because he is senior to Dhoni?

But we should never forget the achievements and sacrifices of the chief.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni was the first remarkable Indian captain who pulled the boundaries of ICC world Twenty 20 Trophy in South Africa in the mid of 2007 by winning the same.

Dhoni was the mere player followed by Captain Kapil Dev to win the crown of world cup and make India and Indians proud.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni seizes the record of being the highest wicketkeeper by 183 not out. Another stood to be Brian Lara by 153, which Sachin never ended to do.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni was the first remarkable Indian captain who pulled the boundaries of ICC world Twenty 20 Trophy in South Africa in the mid of 2007 by winning the same.

Dhoni was the mere player followed by Captain Kapil Dev to win the crown of world cup and make India and Indians proud, Sachin never attempted to do so.
After looking the bucketful performances of the chief what the cricket board and masses has to speak upon?

Still they would support Sachin?

hello friends,
does any one know, which team has never participated in ICC champions trophy?
