hello
For your kind info both sachin and sourav are rested against scotland.Both are playing better than dravid. Dravid position in the team is a big question now. He has forgotten his batting.There is a big crack in the wall.Look at his test scores in the last 3 test series.He performed only against Bangla. He scored only one 50 in his last 12 inn. against SA and Eng.

what was gangulys batting scores when captain? Just because he has scored low in one series does not mean anything--so stop posting stupid and irrelavant comments.

He's got a chance in 20/20--i dont think he is finished--but you will get a dozen messages blaming rahul Dravid for his plight!!

Dravid is much better than politician Dada. Everybody makes mistakes, but Dada made too many mistakes and kept him off the field for a long while. What i dont understand is why there is a north and south bias for every news? We are first Indians, then our individual identity comes. We are internally swearing worst than Ind-Pak, England-Ireland, China-Taiwan political and military leaders. Southies call Northies roti-masala chai eaters and norties call southies Idli-sambar eaters etc... is disgusting. Is it what we achieved in the last 60 years?

COMMITMENT AND CAPABILITY ARE THE QUALITIES WHICH DIFFERENTIATE DRAVID FROM GANGU AND TENDULK

why this pathological hatred towards dravid? These guys are crazy with their continous comments

what commitment and capability man. He was unable to force the follow on in the 3rd test against Eng and gave his own stupid reasons like bowlers are tired.He has forgotten his batting completely. No good captaincy and no captain. Fully committed and capability

every right thinking and right eating person will support THE MIGHTY DRAVID opposers are who eats bullshit and thinking filthy !!!!!!!!!!
Gambhir is a excellent & wondeful player only against minnows. He never performed against big teams like SA, Pak. I dont know how Ravi Shastri keep on recommending him in the playing eleven.
Our so called sincere n matured Indian ppl r again barking on cricket , actually either team wins r losses, they ppl r just to bark, they get something to bark, this time on captaincy bcoz they cant digest that 1) dravid won 3 overseas ( out of sub continent ) matches in 25 test n ganguli in 3 ( leave Zim ) in 49 test , so who is better 2) in one days dravid%u2019s winning percentage is better than ganguli, , so who is better 3) if ganguli has some glories in long period then dravid also in short perod, so who is better 4) if zaheer was fit n bowlers were fit, then why did they take 15 over (approx) to bowl out 10 the wicket of eng in 1st inning 5) n why did not zaheer got any wicket in secong inning, n why did he go again just after bowling 4 over in second inning 6) ppl forget it is not dravid r ganuli due to them Indian team was winning, when players click team wins otherwise not, so captain is as good as team 7) ppl will see in future whoever will lead the team his stats would be better , it is very natural, it has nothing to do with captaincy, it is relevant with team efforts, 8) ssome ppl say if ganguli r pointing had been , they would have imposed follow on, perhaps they forget it was ganguli who took even third day to bat , n did not imposed follow on on 4th day even being leading by 225 bcoz he did not want to take risk as series was at par, n when did ponting impose follow on, if any1 knows tell me plz, howeve

Ganguli converted a gone case team (aftr betting scam of Azhar) into world class, while Dravid inherited a world class team but he converted it into loser, apologetic to win.
