MS Dhoni needs to take risks to win abroad, says Rahul Dravid

Former Indian Captain Rahul Dravid has backed the under-fire Mahendra Singh Dhoni to stay on as Test skipper for at least a year, but added that he would need to take a "few risks" to win abroad.

Dravid said that Dhoni's captaincy has been defensive in critical situations and felt he doesn't trust his bowling attack enough.

Away from home, Dhoni has captained India in 23 Tests, of which they have won five, lost 11 and drawn seven, and asked if the selectors should continue with him, Dravid replied in positive.
