Steven Smith to be the Successor; Smith replaces Clarke as Captain of Australia!

By -
Steven Peter Devereux Smith.During a T20 Match vs Pakistan at Melbourne in 2010, we heard this name for the first time. At that time he was just a choice for the spot of an allrounder. He was a better fielder and bowler  than a batsman. He couldn't start well too. Eventhough he made the odi debut same year, his spot was not permanent.

But now after five years, everything changed. He keeps on scoring hundreds and winning it for australia. Now Australian side, especially in tests, if they have to win Smith has to score a hundred. What turned around him, during the five years I Don't know. May be the faith kept by Australian Selectors as well the Clarke. They trusted him, gave him enough of chances , which now leads to become successor of the 'Pup'.

May be Smith is the better choice to lead this australian side. His learning ability, leadership quality as well as the understanding nature may group him along with names like Ricky Ponting.

 "It's an honour and privilege to be given the opportunity to Captain theAustralian Cricket Team. I look forward to all of the challenges that lay ahead and hope to continue the great legacy of Australian captains", Smith quoted in his official page. 


It will be a new experience for the young lion from the oceanian side. He is going to face a real test. From the defeat in ashes, they have to start from the begining. Can the current World Champions bounce back in 'Captain-Smith's rule??? Smith already made point to win more test at foreign soil than in the home soil. Let us see how far he could take this Australian side?

Dhoni "THE SELFISH ARROGANT CREDIT STEALER"

This article is from my Heart. The Title may look strange, but in this country, this title would make a small proportion interested, rather than giving some titles in praise for Dhoni. Dhoni may be the most Popular cricketer after Sachin in this country, but one thing is sure, Even though Dhoni lies second to master in likes, in dislikes he is far ahead than the master. They are very few in number, but they who continuously haunts him, troll him, abuse him. That very few even wished India to lose, just see Dhoni's head down. But unfortunately, Captain Cool always treat those people or media as those three dogs in his house. Am not here to Worship Dhoni, or to go through the milestones he achieved. We watched him, we know him, so there is no need to go through his journey and if I do Words won't be enough to describe that.  There were nearly 453 captains in cricket, but only one won all the three ICC Trophies. ICC T20 WORLD CUP,50 OVER WORLD CUP, CHAMPIONS TROPHY, NO.1 IN TEST...

Whenever India visits England or Australia, Every Indian Fan would have hopes of Building a Solid Foreign CV. When India finishes off their historic Afghan Tesr at Bengaluru in 2 days, I Was there at Chinnaswamy with greater hopes,wishing this time it’s going to be tough for England. Even today I Believe, even after burying all those hopes I Believe, unlike the former visits this series were really tough for home side. Apart From the Second test, Indians were never out of the context. I would say this is the best Indian Pace attack that visited England. 287,180,396,317,161,271,246;- The Bowlers really gave their 100%. Taking 67 wickets out of 70,never allowing a good batting home side to reach 500 or 600 is really an achievement. But Still we lost. How and Why? The difference between both the sides were When Indians had Sessions,England had days. And Test Cricket is all about Days. For me the Player of the Series is Sam Curran,followed by Jos Butler and Ben Stokes. I think the...
