Four lessons from the England series the Indian team must carry forward to replicate the 2011 World Cup success

#2 Ageing Dhoni

Dhoni struggled against the spinners during the ODI series

There has been no doubt about Dhoni's ability and his value to the team. But of late, there have been many questions about him taking too long to settle down and him finding it difficult against the spinners.

Maybe he should bat up the order at No. 4 or No. 5 because it will give him some time to get set before having a go. He can still finish off the innings in a handsome manner which was prevalent in the IPL two months back.

If he is able to provide the impetus at the end, it will add on India's chances as you cannot always trust inexperience and irresponsible Pandya who still needs to mature a lot.
