India tour of South Africa, 3rd ODI: South Africa v India at Cape Town, Jan 18, 2011.
These fitness issues have left Dhoni not demanding too much of his fast bowlers either, with the World Cup just around the corner. He said that right now fitness is more important than form, because there aren't too many choices, especially in the fast-bowling department.
Dhoni said he would need to rotate the fast bowlers in this series because there are a few niggles troubling them. "We will have to see what kind of niggle a bowler is having, and accordingly we will decide," Dhoni said. "Of course right now we don't have too many fast bowlers to choose from when it comes to the one-day side. You have two bowlers outside, Ishant and Sreesanth, who have not played a lot of ODI cricket recently. This series is important, but I don't want any bowler to get an injury just because of over burden. We will try to avoid it because World Cup is big for us, but at the same time this series is important."
Dhoni himself seems to be struggling after getting hit in the shin while keeping. If he becomes unavailable during this series, that will be some trouble because India don't even have a reserve wicketkeeper here.
