transformation redux...

as i am writing this dhoni has scored 38 of 47 balls...

more than the runs most seems pleasantly surprised by the fact that how he has handled the bowling with positive intent...which was missing in his earlier endeavors...

not this blogger...

SP spotted this persona of his as early as fab 2008 during series down under...

Transformation...

spotted something common...?

yes...today he is batting as 'captain' dhoni...


Update:
that was as ordinary decision as one could get...looks that was only way one would have denied dhoni well deserved century...


PS:
rudi by all standard is having very poor outing...first he didn't referred sg upstairs for reasons best known to him...and now this shocker...

Transformation!!

we all keep on hearing this little story of how otherwise normal person transforms into a great actor once the directory shouts 'action' and camera rolls!! he becomes just another person...he becomes the character he is playing...

same seems to happen with Dhoni...

we all know how he was at sea in test series...but once the focus shifted to ODIs...where he is captain...he just don't seem to be same dhoni who played for india in test series...

he seems to enjoy leadership...and the word 'captain' transforms him into something special...i am not saying he was not special earlier...but he likes leadership and thats when his true self comes to fore...

maybe the feeling that he owns this group of youngsters...maybe the responsibility of being leader...and urge to show them the way...or maybe that now he is on his own being the 'captain' of the side is doing the trick...

otherwise how one can explain that same guy who could somehow not to put bat on bowl...gets transformed into a batsmen who just don't seems to get out...no poking of bat outside off stump...no confusion of where the next run is going to come from...infact india never looked like loosing wicket whenever he stepped in...in this ODI series...


can you shed more light?
