Nation awaits next move from the great gambler Dhoni

NORTHAMPTON: Even if he was just joking captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni knows that he faces a much tougher task for the upcoming two-day match than for the remaining two Tests. Who does he field against Northamptonshire? More importantly, who can he rest? Indeed, the Indian team, especially after the two-Test drubbing, looks more used and abused than a Mumbai taxi; after all, it has been on the road for almost ever now. Look at them, he is believed to have quipped on Tuesday, as he and a few of his mates soaked in the city centre atmosphere. Some day one of them will just collapse. He, of course, will never say something like that even if a gun was put to his head; at the most, he was only trying to look at the problem from a lighter side. But it is still exactly that: a major problem. Yuvraj Singh, after taking a nasty blow on his hand, and Harbhajan Singh (abdominal strain) are already out. Gautam Gambirs elbow surely needs more time too so that the pain, or injury, doesnt become a factor in the crucial battle ahead; Rahul Dravid also needs some recovery space after all the batting in West Indies and here.
