Mahender Singh Dhoni: Arrogant?

Before the inaugural T20 Cricket World Cup which was held in South Africa in the Year 2007 Indian Cricket Captain Mahender Singh Dhoni was a part of eleven member’s team as a wicket keeper and struggling to firm his place in the Indian Cricket team because from more then year Indian cricket team was in search for a wicket keeper and had try names like Parthiv Patel, Dinesh Karthik, Deep Das Gupta even in some matches Rahul Dravid also put keeping globes but these experiment’s were not proving good for team in both version of Cricket that is One Day International and Test Cricket and BCCI keep on trying on some series basis experiments but because of not consistently performance by anybody BCCI keep on changing them and Board of Control for Cricket in India’s (B.C.C.I.) search stop after inclusion of Mahender Singh Dhoni (MSD) first in the One Day International’s then gradually in the Test Matches also and MSD prove to be assets because along with Wicket keeping he establish himself as a good batsman also who can bat at any number.
Rise of MSD as star who can not only do wicket keeping with perfection and bat at any down but also after India’s worst performance in the preliminary round and India knocked out of the tournament from One Day International Cricket World Cup which held in West Indies from 13th March to 28Th April,2007 and after just over month time International Cricket Council (ICC) had plan infect schedule for the new version of Cricket Game by name T20 and it’s inaugural World cup was going to played in South Africa and because of worst performance in the ODI World cup and anger express by emotional fans in India senior players on the name of rest not selected and some players withdraw their name for selection in the T20 World cup Indian Cricket team thus BCCI selected new but young players and first time give chance to MSD as Captain of Indian Cricket team. No expert or fan was serious that India will do any wonder in this form of Cricket as India had played very few games of T20 with average record, but as the tournament progressed India with it’s every game by surprising everybody with unbelievable performances of it’s every players which suddenly attracts Cricket crazy Country to back up their unknown players who become stars thus people’s in India from Super Eight onwards shown interest in the tournament and glue to television set’s and India’s winning journey comes to halt when India in the final defeated it’s arch rival in nail biting finish and become champion.
This year India in the second edition of T20 Cricket World Cup which is under progress right now in England, India represent this time to defend World Cup and Indian Cricket team players who are part of Indian Cricket team almost everybody had very good practice of T20 because of IPL2 which just concluded fortnight ago. So everything was in favour of India to defend T20 title and lift the world cup again despite other teams like Australia, South Africa and New Zealand are also favorite out of total 12 team’s but to code here Australia was knocked out of the tournament as it was unable to clear preliminary round and qualify for Super Eight.
Instead of focusing on the practice and game ahead to be played in Super Eight after one of the team of the easiest group of preliminary round, news start leaking from the team through media that everything is not smooth in Indian cricket team and there is rift between players and why there is rift if it because of injury to Virender Sehwag or group ism or anything else even media was not sure, when news of rift in team reaches to Team then immediately without wasting time Captain along with all the members show their unity in press conference MSD comes along with all the members of team and try to show that they are untied but still despite this effort news was keep on leaking from media about team which make worried all the fans that if everything is not smooth and one of the senior member of the team is not talking term with captain then how they will defend their title and even before the start of Super Eight game of Indian team in a press conference MSD appear in different tone when asked about the fitness of Virender Sehwag his answer was shocking and reply was if you need anything related to the fitness of any player I wont answer you will be informed by BCCI as if he is not with the members and then after some hours news came from BCCI that Virender Sehwag will not be part of team which will play rest of the matches of T20 World Cup but he will remain with team as guest of BCCI, then time ahead for Indian players was to concentrate on coming games and their first encounter of Super Eight was against West Indies, which everybody predicting for India group’s easiest game ,but West Indies stunned India –
1. Group E: India v West Indies at Lord's - Jun 12, 2009
West Indies won by 7 wickets (with 8 balls remaining)
India 153/7 (20/20 overs); West Indies 156/3 (18.4/20 overs)

Super Eight opener for India upsets fan across the globe, then for India next two games of Super Eight against England and South Africa was must win otherwise it will be exit of Indian Team for T20 World Cup .

2. Group E: England v India at Lord's - Jun 14, 2009
England won by 3 runs
England 153/7 (20/20 overs); India 150/5 (20/20 overs)

With lot of hopes and support of countless fans of Cricket all around the world glue to Television set to cheer up Indian team so that they cross first hurdle which is of two steps but result of the game put brakes Indian Cricket team to move further in the Semifinals.
Cricket is a game in which one team has to won and other has to lose and on the day only that team will win who perform better in all the field whether it’s field, batting, catching, strategy but it’s not possible that one can do all the things spontaneously as Indian team was busy before the matches in press conferences’ to show that there is no rift and they are united but as there is saying
Without fire there won’t be smoke
with this type of demonstration it won’t change the outcome as captain and players duty to concentrate on practice and games but our players and captain always think other way that on the match day if they did any wonder in the past against any team or other is a weak team and for them it will always happen in there favour because of countless support but for Indian Team they must understand and keep in mind other team’s who are playing tournament they also comes with preparations and representing their country and comes to play , past record are history, Arrogancy , groupism , rift, differences all are meant to embraces defeat before the game.
