We should all appreciate Dhoni’s contribution for Indian cricket for past 2 years. But at the same time never should we forget the Sachin (Run machine of Indian Cricket), Sourav Ganguly (Best captain of Indian Cricket), and Dravid (Wall of Indian Cricket). Dhoni has won 1st T20 world cup and series win against Australia down under. But, are these performances enough to be nominated for Khel Ratna awards?
Though Dhoni is a best player (as most of all percieve), he is not even good against non Asian bowlers and at non Asian venues. How can he compete for a prestigious award against people who had hit centuries against all nations? How sad has Indian sports gone down to the extend of depending on one individual of one game.
Where have the respect for Sachin (More than 25, 000 runs with more than 60 centuries), DADA (More than 16, 500 runs with more than 35 centuries) , Dravid (More than 20, 000 runs with more than 40 centuries), Kumble (Only Indian to get 10 wickets in a test innings), and VVS Laxman (a nightmare for 4 time world champion Australia) gone.
All of them played for india in critical situations and have a best rescord by their side. Public is busy critcising (cursing) retired players and they dont have time to recognise about their(Sachin, DADA, Dravid) contributions to Indian cricket in International arena. The very pathetic thing is even BCCI didn’t recognise that.
How can one expect BCCI to act fair in this case, as they are already busy in killing ICL and earn billions and trillions through IPL and also they are busy in finding reasons to answer why they dropped Ganguly and Dravid from ODI. Ganguly who has given a tremendous come back after many hurdles was dropped for no reasons during Australia series down under. Dravid’s case has become worst even more after he resigned the captaincy.
I pray god, to help BCCI in building up a Cricket TEAM for INDIA , not a GANG for BCCI . A gang which never respects seniors and anybody in opposition.
