SA Footy

Unable to post as on phone but its just been reported on yahoo that MS Dhoni has been suspended for a 2nd offence of slow over rates.

This could get interesting.

Hilarious.
The guy takes forever to set a field and they have no sense of urgency between overs

A more reliable source confirms the suspension

I wonder how India will react - probably already halfway home

Sehwag to captain, Saha to play

Nah there wont be a fourth test match, they'll take there bat and ball and go home.

He takes ages to set a field, no real urgency from him to get his players up. Seriously his fields arent that good. I still believe he is an average captain, he has just had a very good side over the last few years.

I doubt it's much of a coincidence his suspension is for a dead rubber test. Lets him freshen up for the next batch of cricket. Just designed to give the Indians the ability to say they get judged just as harshly when reality is otherwise.

It's a conspiracy theory man!!

To be honest after watching Dhoni bat, there is no way he could possibly make any runs away from the sub continent. Seriously he pokes and dabs at balls. He looks good when he is swinging the bat, but other than that he looks like a real dud with the bat.

Just my opinion from what I have seen. I bet he will score a 100 when he goes back home.

Probably a bad thing for the Aussies...India might try something different now.

Who will take the gloves for them? Did they bring a backup keeper?

We could lend them Haddin?

Wriddiman Saha is the back up keeper.

Cant they keep him?

I expect they wouldn't want him back either.

Did you think we should give them Haddin?

Has been very reactive captain in the current series.

Yep and hasn't been under the pump as a captain alot.

Not a great Test player, but a good one.

Not a good ODI player, but a great one.

Not a cricket captain's arsehole in any format.

It's painful to watch at times. Doing that you just know he'll be edging it to the keeper, slips or gully very soon. It's as if he's giving them catching practice.
