Aggressive batting and stupid batting is not the same thing. Didn't you hear what Gavaskar said about Rafique's innings?
I highly doubt that Dhoni is technically a better player than Aftab. But then how does he score so many runs in both forms of the game? He plays in the style which suits him best. It's not that he never did anything stupid in a crucial time, but he delivered more often than he failed. Aftab must play his natural game and learn to deal with match situaion at the same time.
