Dhoni retires from Test Cricket

[vic_orthdox]

Kohli to captain in Sydney, Dhoni still to play ODIs and T20s.

 

[duffer]

Wow. Just wow.

 

[Spikey]

Cant wait for Ashwin's presser about it

 

[Cevno]

Wow. Bit unexpected but good move.

Wonder how long he carries on in Odi's.

 

[Swingpanzee]

Holy **** you gotta be kidding

 

[Antihippy]

He's still a gun in ODIs isn't he?

 

[harsh.ag]

Where are you getting this from?

 

[vic_orthdox]

Had his press conference, didn't mention it at all. Press release afterwards.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Surpising. But don't mind it at all.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Where are you getting this from?

manjrekar just announced it in the studio.

 

[Swingpanzee]

Did a Graeme Swann there,

 

[Antihippy]

So who's the WK now?

Saha?

 

[Cevno]

He's still a gun in ODIs isn't he?

Super Gun.

 

[harsh.ag]

Yup. Dhoni retires from tests! ET, BS, NewsMinute all reporting it.

Wow. Well played MS

 

[Swingpanzee]

I guess I realize why Smith called for a draw

 

[vic_orthdox]

Think it's the right time. Kohli looks like "the man" at the moment, not just about his runs.

 

[Cevno]

Surpising. But don't mind it at all.

Odd thing though is the tours where he struggles got out of way this year.

He still makes the side easily elsewhere. Though guess new captain is best part.

 

[Blocky]

That's literally the best news India could have received. I think they'll start to rise up in tests again under Kohli with a more aggressive brand of cricket. I also think they'll find a better #7 than Dhoni.

 

[Cevno]

So who's the WK now?

Saha?

Saha to get the first go. Then Ojha wld be next i guess.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Not really unhappy.

Regardless of how much I've hated his captaincy, well done MS. You've undoubtedly been immense for the Indian team.
