One of the best ODI innings ever.
When Kohli got out, I was excited to have our spinners bowl at Yuvraj.
captains decision, to come into bat in a tight game being out of form.
Absolutely brilliant

WAG. Great knock. Won't call it one of the greatest or anything, but still awesome under pressure.

Yeah, an epic performance!

Well played to SL too. Fantastic cricket and I really wouldn't have mind that much if SL won and Murali got a send off with WC. But of course, I am happier with this

I alwaysaid that Dhoni is probably the best Indian captain ever. I still maintain this

Yeah we don't crap in the first world; most of us would actually have no idea what that was emanating from Ajmal's backside. Why isn't it roses and rainbows like what happens here? PEWS's retort to Ganeshran on Daemon's picture depicting Ajmal's excreta

Great knock, led from the front. He has led India to become the number 1 test and one day side.

Since it matters a lot, Dhoni's average in world cup finals - well, it doesn't exist actually

No matter what people say about him, he has always looked to me like someone destined to achieve BIG things, and achieve them in the most unassuming manner. There is a sense of inevitability about things he does.

I can't prove it because I am not old enough on the forum, but back at a time when he was not even being considered for captaincy, I believed, and said on some other forums, that Dhoni is a natural captaincy material.

Wait, what has been said about him? A quality performance when it counted, he's proven more people right than wrong.
