He's an axeman with the bat, an unimaginative skipper and sometimes untidy with the gloves.

He's also the highest paid cricketer in the World, and considered the face of 'new India'.

He has an aggravating poofy voice.

Apart from that he's an uber defensive captain with limited glovemanship.

Defensive captain which is shown up much more in tests. Average keeper. Overrated batsman. Good man management skills though and ability to stay calm in tough situations. In many ways he is another victim of that terrible fraternity BCCI. In his heart I am sure Dhoni knows that the BCCI's obsession for the dollar / rupee is killing the game but like many others he dare not speak given the riches that are rolling in. Ironically the rolling riches and the adoration of the fans towards the Indian Cricket / Cricketers are likelty to take a deep dive southwards in an acute fashion. That said I see that many of the IPL franchises are still not reading that way given the transfer dollars spent for Dinesh Karthik and Kevin Peterson.

Mind you ... given the vast amount of $$$$$$$ available for a months jobsworth ... so would I.

Petersen lobs into the Delhi Bellies for a cool $2 million ... I mean ...W>T>F> ?

Well he's been suspended for the Adelaide test so they do get to try someone else out.

Fire--> Frying pan. Saha will play the Adelaide test. Hopefully he could be a better batsman in the series than Dhoni.

Slow over rates. He's a repeat offender.

It'll give India a bit of fresh air TBH. Combine that with the flat track and India look quids in for Adelaide.

Thanks to that bloody Warner bloke, he kept having to fetch the ball from somewhere near Rottnest Island. Damn hard to keep the rate up that way.

At least that's the defence I'd have run with.

Dhoni has quite a few fans. Atherton thinks the sun shines out of his arse and CMJ went as far as comparing his batting to that of Basil D'Oliveira. Both utterly wrong imo.

He's a dead man walking I think - I reckon he's played his last test as captain.

In an interview the other day he was talking about how his ambitions lay in the ODI arena. Maybe won't be too fazed about this suspension.
