If you look at the newzealand test series,only ghambir and dravid played very well.Sewhag was out of touch and new ball was played by dravid ,for others it was easy when they came it happened in every test ,but he couldnit get a century,Credid for draw must be to both ghambir and dravid.
95 - No. of catches held by him in 75 overseas Tests - most by any player 144 - Catches by Dravid off right-arm bowlers - 112 spinners and 32 pacers 183 - Number of catches held by him till date, 33 of them as captain 6 - No. of catches taken to dismiss Australia’s Justin Langer in 15 Tests - the most against any batsman 55 - Catches off Kumble’s bowling - the most off a single bowler. He has taken 45 catches off Harbhajan 79 - No. of catches held by Dravid under Ganguly’s captaincy - the most under one captain

You copied this from Times of India Sports page of 07.04.09. Why don't you try something original ? Even others read newspaper articles.

You go and take one catch if you are capable of that, comment on others. It is ridiculous writing such comments.

You must be govt. employee who is hanging around for 20-25 years without any output, thats why thinking the same for others.Senior players are there in the squad because of their capability and they do not need any certification from bulshit people like you. Before commenting on any sports or any player or any other celebrity who brought so much proud to our country, just go & check yourself what you have done for the nation.
Agreed But, why are they playing for such long time?? It is purely becuae they are contributing and achieving!! Not just pulling time along - without results - SORRY MAN. You need to be correct while making such comments on achievers.

not really. they can hang around being mediocre and not create any record. most of them are on top of the game, which is why they are creating records. its not like a typical mundane office going job where you happen to whilst away time.
Rahul is the best in Indian team...he has a unique technique, talented and after all his sucess, he is down to earth .. so humble ... not like others, who play for awards and milestones...he is the best Indian cricketer ever seen ..
