Gilchrist was one of the greatest ever WK batter, while Dhoni is the greatest young talent in world cricket today.
I thought that was Irfan Pathan.

AA is still a young talent, its still clearly him.

In fact it may be AA's son, AA junior, who is the newest 'best young talent' around today :D

You are easily forgetting Lee of course.

And there are Dave Md. and then Ronchi before we get till AA Junior :p

And he got a first ball duck yeaterday huh? Bias Indian's.
Even Bradman has got a duck! So are Aussie fans and Bradman fans all over the world biased? No I am not comparing Bradman with Dhoni. Just showing the fallacy of your logic of calling Indian fans biased based on a duck.

And how much did Mike Hussey get in his debut inning? ;)

Well whats with all this hype around Dhoni? Hussey has scored over 10000 first class runs for Western Australia. Dhoni hasn't even played a test, He is no Adam Gilchrist.

Dhoni hasnt played a test. Dhoni hasnt proven he is very good abroad as well in international one dayers.

Dhoni though has in fact played some very good innings in his short career. He is not Adam Gilchrist based on such a short career.

But it would be better form to appreciate a young player when he performs rather than just mock him when he scores a duck.

And how is that BIAS ? Agreed Dhoni hasn't done much to be compared to Gilchrist and if you read this thread, you will find that most Indians believe that as well.

Really who gives a flying **** about what Hussey has done in Domestic Cricket. To me only his international performance matters. If he is able to do it , good, if not then he can go back to Western Australia and score another 20,000 runs and It would mean Zlich to me.

This doesn't mean that Hussey isn't good or cant be good, but he is far from being the next Michael Bevan as some aussies have trying to convince us. :p

Whatever it takes!!!
well, his keeping wasn't good yesterday. He missed straight ones off Yadav, and he failed to collect a few balls down the leg side cleanly, giving away some extra wides.

Shane Warne and Glenn McGrath didn't get any wickets yesterday. They must be hopeless.

Bias Australian's.
