COLOMBO: There has been much discussion about M S Dhoni's remarks in the post match interview after India won the on going ODI series in Colombo to the effect that India would give its bench a chance in the two dead rubbers. The upshot of that was that Sachin Tendulkar and Zaheer Khan - the two seniormost members of the ODI side were left out, while Irfan Pathan and Rohit Sharma played in their place. As far as tactics went, Dhoni was uncompromising. He promoted himself to number 3, and not Rohit Sharma.
