India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni is not worried about the fans’ reaction back home and he is confidnt of winning their hearts back.

 

There has been an avalanche of criticism since India has quashed out of the ICC World Twenty20 title race.

 

"Whenever you do well, you get appreciation and you get criticised whenever you don't do well. It is part and parcel of the game and I don't think too much about it," Dhoni said ahead of India's final match against South Africa.

 

Fans in MSD's home town of Ranchi have been the most aggressive and Dhoni has a task in hand calming them down.

 

Dhoni, however, is confident of winning over the fans again with some good performances.

 

"I'm sure after some good performances they would once again start praising us," he said.

 

The skipper also said he hardly bothered about the post mortem of matches that are carried on after a loss.

 

"I'm not really worried. Whenever you select 11 players out of 14 and whenever it does not click, the guys sitting out might think 'why he and why not me'. I think that is normal," Dhoni added.
