Past doesn8217;t count,well start from scratch: Dhoni

8220;I believe every game is a new game,8221; Dhoni said on the eve of the tour opener,adding 8220;You have to start from scratch.8221;

Dhoni put Wednesday8217;s match in perspective saying it would not set the tone for the remainder of the series.

8220;It is not like if you have won the first game it makes a huge difference for the entire tour. It is a 50-day tour and the team that will be victorious will be the one that plays good cricket for a consistent amount of time,8221; Dhoni said.

Dhoni8217;s team does not lack match-winners but the Indian captain said he wanted complete team effort where each and every player would chip in.
