Dhoni not 'Captain Cool' anymore, he needs 'Yoga': Bedi

Former India skipper Bishan Singh Bedi today said Mahendra Singh Dhoni is "not 'Captain Cool' anymore" and suggested yoga sessions for the beleaguered cricketer to overcome the tough phase.
An agitated Dhoni said he was ready to relinquish ODI captaincy if that helps the team win matches after the Men in Blue lost their first series against Bangladesh last night. Bedi feels Dhoni is certainly ruffled by the recent losses.
"Ye pehli dafa hai ki woh behki behki baatein kar raha hai (It's the first time he is not making sense). And that is a clear indication that he is not 'Captain Cool' anymore. He looks ruffled. Having said that I still don't blame any individual but the team," Bedi told PTI in an interview.

Taking note of Dhoni's on-pitch collision with young Mustafizur Rahman that cost the wicketkeeper-batsman 75 per cent of his match fee, Bedi criticised the veteran player for his on-field demeanour.
"Even barging into that bowler was very unbecoming of Dhoni. Clear signs of restlessness of mind and body. Perhaps dire need for him to go through yogic exercises," the legendary spinner said in a lighter vein.
After a 79-run win in the first ODI, Bangladesh clinched the three-match series with a six-wicket triumph in the second match. Bedi had no doubts that the hosts played better cricket but questioned India's lack of spirit.

"There is no doubt that Bangladesh played better cricket but what about India's preparation before going for the tour? They took them lightly. In my opinion complacency has no place in international cricket. Their body language looked complacent," Bedi said.
"There is no shame in defeat but there has to be some concern in defeat. The killer instinct, which is part of a professional sportsperson's character, was missing from Team India. Bangladesh were more committed in batting, bowling and fielding front.
"Man to man India were a better side on paper, but games are played on the ground. Before they knew it they were blown away. I can't imagine Australia or South Africa losing to Bangladesh like that," he added.
