For Mahendra Singh Dhoni, missing out on winning a limited overs competition in Sri Lanka is a rarity. Ever since he took over as captain in 2007, only once has Dhoni returned without the ultimate silverware. <img alt="" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2012/oct/dhoni_2.jpg" style="width: 400px; height: 350px; " /> That was before yesterday&rsquo;s exit from the ICC World T20 in Colombo. Though India beat South Africa by one run, they couldn&rsquo;t qualify for the semis due to inferior net run-rate. The skipper had good reason to feel gutted. His team didn&rsquo;t lack experience. Six of yesterday&rsquo;s playing XI featured in the victorious 2007 World T20 squad. Dhoni couldn&rsquo;t help bringing up the rain factor yet again &mdash; against Australia in a match which the men from Down Under won by nine wickets. &ldquo;If you take the Australia game out, where the rain intervened, we performed brilliantly. We can&rsquo;t have control over how other teams played,&rdquo; said Dhoni last night. &ldquo;Overall, I&rsquo;m quite happy with how the team performed. There were instances where we should have had 10-15 runs more on the board. We lost too many wickets early,&rdquo; Dhoni added. SA captain AB de Villiers said: &ldquo;We had a poor tournament. We&rsquo;ve let the country down.&rdquo; Semi-final line-up Pakistan vs Sri Lanka, Thurs, 7pm Australia vs West Indies, Fri, 7pm (Live on Star Cricket, ESPN &amp; DD)u00a0
