  • Mahendra Singh Dhoni: a Leadership Study of an Enigma
    © 2018 JETIR December 2018, Volume 5, Issue 12 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Mahendra Singh Dhoni: A Leadership Study of an Enigma Hardeep Singh Assistant Professor, Centre of Professional Enhancement, Lovely Professional University, Phagwara, Punjab (India) Abstract The article is about the talismanic former wicketkeeper and skipper of Team India. It is a study depicting arrival of a young man full of immense potential, his technique of stewardship leading into staggering success with some share of controversies along the stunning journey. Dhoni was handed over the captaincy of the team in 2007 and he took the cricketing world by storm with his unique style of leading the team. The case elucidates the journey of a small town boy who emerged as a stellar performer for Indian team. Under his leadership, Indian team went on the scale tall mountains courtesy his sheer grit and determination. The entire team had great belief in him and he as a skipper was liked and adored in the cricketing circles. His attributes of being mentally tough and leading from the front inspired players to put their best foot forward in every match in tricolors. Without an iota of doubt, Team India blossomed under his leadership and continues to do so as he passed the baton to young sensation and virtually the king of batting Virat Kohli. Keywords: Captain, Leadership, Great, Enigmatic, Performer Introduction Leadership, the quality of changing the attitude and behavior of your co- workers and instills in them the trait of zeal and confidence.

  • Sourav Ganguly 30.8.18 the Indian Batting Finally Came to the Party
    Sourav Ganguly 30.8.18 The Indian batting finally came to the party India staged a forceful and decisive comeback at Trent Bridge which has really opened up the series and the pressure is fully back on England to live up to the challenge. It was the mindset which stood out with which India came out to confront England and that really caught Root and company unaware. This series has really livened up and is now poised for a dramatic finish. The openers laid the foundation in the first innings, maybe not with a hundred-run partnership, but they survived the new ball, didn’t let the English bowlers make early inroads, put runs on the board and sent a message to the dressing-room that if you want you can stay put. That actually created the difference for the entire Test. It was a blessing for India that they lost the toss and England put them in and Virat Kohli should keep this in mind. Twice during the series I felt he came with a mindset to field first and that, at times, is not good in test cricket. The Indian batting, which is their biggest strength, finally came to the party and Dhawan, Rahul, Pujara, and Rahane showed their mettle. For Dhawan, this knock should be a huge boost for him when he plays Tests away. There were no booming cover-drives — which he completely needs to forget in away conditions as his repertoire off the back foot is also very good. Add to this the ever- evolving, indomitable Kohli and you will see his counterpart with raised eyebrows, worried all the time.
