South Africa survives "Yusuf Pathan" scare . . .

                 
Yusuf Pathan hit a blistering 68-ball century but could not stop South Africa from winning the series-deciding fifth and final one-day international against India at SuperSport Park on Sunday.
South Africa won by 33 runs according to the Duckworth-Lewis method, clinching a come-from-behind 3-2 series win thanks mainly to a century by Hashim Amla and four wickets by fast bowler Morne Morkel.
Dhoni doesn't deserve a series win in SA, not yet.Where is that Dhoni who played record knock of 183 ? where is that Dhoni once played his life out with tail enders to save a test match ? I think success got his head and he started manipulating things, discouraging deserved players , encouraging his "friends', etc.,

As a leader if you loose "sincerity", you start falling down the ladder which you achieved with great efforts.
Dhoni - realize this and put your sincere efforts again in WC. You will surely come up with results.
I appreciate Pathan for playing a great knock and showing Indians can never be taken for granted.keep it up.
My congratulations to "Kohli" for showing grit and class.
I do not blame Dhoni for taking a decision against batting first - I knew that his confidence level about his batsmen and his own , is such at a low level, which prompts him to bowl first in a final match. He had no clue, how to win this match and he expected some miracle. Pathan produced a near miracle, but like i said earlier, Dhoni does not deserve a win here.

Any ways Good luck India for world cup matches- Good luck Dhoni- We will surely have a winning combination back in subcontinent.
