Dhoni confident his bowlers will come good sooner than later Persistent criticism of India's bowling notwithstanding, skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni has not given up on his men, yet. <table style="width: 120px; height: 42px" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="120" align="right" border="1"> <tbody> <tr> <td><img alt="" src="/imagedata/2011/mar/harbhajan.jpg" border="0" /></td></tr> <tr> <td> Harbhajan Singh</td></tr></tbody></table>Dhoni yesterday expressed optimism that his bowlers would find their rhythm by the time the knockout matches begin. Harbhajan Singh and Co will get another opportunity when they take on the Netherlands at the Feroz Shah Kotla here today. "There's one thing we need to learn, and that is how to dismiss the set batsmen. We want to try out all the possible bowling combinations, and hopefully land with the best attack before the knockout stages," Dhoni said on the even of the tie. Dhoni ruled out dropping a batsman to accommodate a fifth bowler. "Including a fifth specialist bowler is difficult, Yusuf Pathan at no 7 is an important member of the team. We'd like to stick to the two-seamers-two-spinners strategy, there's not much room for experimentation," he said. It was part-timer Yuvraj Singh who helped skittle out Ireland for 207 in Bangalore on Sunday. However, Dhoni wasn't concerned about the lack of wickets for Harbhajan (two wickets from three games). "I don't mind who is taking the wickets as long as we continue to win. We cannot task just one batsman or bowler, it's a collective effort. I have seen some improvement in the bowling department since the first game, and we hope to peak at the right time," he said. Meanwhile, Holland skipper Peter Borren said that his side was looking to take advantage of India's 'weak fielding'. "We want to take our chances against a strong team like India. We know that India's fielding is one area we can take advantage of," he said.
