Batsmen 'not playing for country,' rages skipper Dhoni

India skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni lashed out at his batsmen for playing to the gallery and not for their country in the three-wicket World Cup defeat to South Africa.
India looked set to post a mammoth total in Saturday's game when they reached 267-1 following Sachin Tendulkar's brilliant 111, but lost their last nine wickets for just 29 runs in nine overs.
"In the batting powerplay, it's important that you don't play for the crowd, but for your country," said Dhoni.
The captain was furious over India's inability to master the powerplay and he insists his men will have to learn to make the most of the fielding restrictions if they are to achieve their World Cup dream.
