Gautam Gambhir should not talk about dhoni again..!?

Dhoni fans are saying that indian team coach gautam gambhir and captain rohit sharma should not talk about dhoni anymore, they are not qualified to do so, pointing to the incidents that took place in the recently concluded Test series against Australia. gautam gambhir has some dissatisfaction with Dhoni. It was under Dhoni's captaincy that gautam gambhir was denied a place in the indian team. On the other hand, rohit sharma, who was given a chance by dhoni and became a middle-order batsman and all-rounder, became an opener and had a great cricketing life. He always speaks highly of Dhoni. But dhoni fans say that the fact that neither of them has the planning or strategy skills of Dhoni's level has been made clear by the recently concluded Test series against Australia.
 In 2008, a tri-nation ODI series was held in australia when dhoni was the captain. At that time, dhoni served as the captain of the indian team. In the fourth match of that series, the indian team dominated and won against the Australian team. With a few overs to go for the win, dhoni batted on the field and sent a message to the indian team's locker room. In it, we should not celebrate this victory. Everyone should remain calm, he said. In 2008, the Australian team was playing under the leadership of Ricky Ponting. It was known as the world's number 1 team and a team that could not be easily defeated by any team.
 
At that time, whenever the Australian team faced some defeats in ODIs, it was seen as a shock defeat. That is, the young team had defeated the number 1 team. The Australian players only thought that it was just luck. They would start exerting their dominance again in the next match. Mentally, they always thought that they were a dominant team. That was the main reason for the victory of the Australian team. dhoni advised the indian team not to celebrate the victory in order to break it. Through this, indirectly, this victory was not achieved by luck. We should convey the indirect message that we will continue to beat the Australian team. That is why he told the indian players not to celebrate the victory. In that series, the indian team defeated australia and won the trophy. dhoni said not to celebrate the victory of a match. But, after avoiding the follow-on in the third Test against australia today, indian team coach gautam gambhir, captain rohit sharma, and senior player kohli celebrated it aggressively as if it was a big victory. Avoiding the follow-on means that a team is struggling. The fact that the indian team management did such a weak thing and celebrated it as a victory with the help of the back row players by avoiding the follow-on shows the poor condition of the indian team. gautam gambhir and rohit sharma did not think about how much it would have given the Australian team confidence and inspiration. That is where they are far behind dhoni in planning. Pointing out this, fans are criticizing them saying that they should not even talk about dhoni anymore. They are not qualified for it.
