MIL/HIndu/Agencies, Mar 15, 2008.
New Delhi, India: March 15, 2008 - Summing up his team's recent victory over Australia in the tri-series championship vs verbal attacks, India's ODI Captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni gave a new dimension to the Indian victory.
Dhoni said here today "A victory is like winning a million verbal duels," summing up his team's recent victory over Australia in the tri-series championship marked by verbal attacks by some Australian players against Harbhajan Singh and others.
"We gave it back to them, and how !" he was quoted as saying in the latest edition of 'Tehelka' magazine.
Dhoni said he had refrained from giving any reaction to the Australian provocations as he knew his team could put it across the world champions.
"I believe in action more than words. I was repeatedly hounded by Indian reporters, who wanted my reaction on repeated insinuations by some top members of the Australian team. But I said nothing. The best answer is your performance", he said:
"I knew we would win and hence, refrained from reacting. I knew we would give it back to them at an appropriate time".
