Indian caption Mr. Cool who win the inaugural T20 World Cup title and the No 1 ranking in Tests. But Mahendra Singh Dhoni may be about to suffer the first major setback of his career. With India failing to win a single Super 8 match in two straight T20 World Cups, there is talk of replacing Dhoni with Virendra Sehwag as captain in both one-dayers and T20. It is possible that India will have a new captain as early as next month when the selectors name the squad for Asia Cup in Sri Lanka. While Sehwag seems the front-runner for the top job, Dhoni will continue to lead the team in Tests, where India is No 1 in ICC rankings. There is apparently a section within the BCCI, which wants Dhoni to be retained even as ODI and T20 skipper due to his trackrecord, but the selectors seem to be ready to seek a change of guard.While Virender Sehwag’s own captaincy record isn’t exactly awe-inspiring. In fact, Sehwag has even given up the captaincy of Delhi Daredevils, saying he prefers to enjoy the game and concentrate on his batting. so we may see some more drama here.
