I have read many things about RD.My views are he is a genuine batsman that India have ever produced.His playing style may vary but the class remains.You cannot except everyone in T20 to bat lile Pollard or a Uthappa.We need players like Rahul to build the innings and to keep wickets for hard hitters.Look at his records in T20 and he has performed well enough.Dravid is classic,superb and dependable batsment.I rate him more than Sachin and Ganguly or even Dhoni.RCB will win the CLT20 cup for sure.All the best RRRRCCCCBBBB!!!!!!!!!!

RAHUL DRAVID, ANIL KUMBLE, JAVAGAL SRINATH are great cricketers from KARNATAKA..Gundappa Vishwanath, Chandrashekar, Prasanna, Budi Kundaran are also great

who is abusing KARNATAKIANS? the discussion is only about dravid and how he cannot play good T20. and by the way all indians are great! no one is superior or inferior to any one!

Boy,, come out UR morning Dreams,, Dont know who is DRAVID he is the Father of Sachin in Techinques and Father or Sunny when to play and how to play in difficult situations, and He is one person who showed how to play Test cricket in abroad and won many matches out side INDIA, His Quality is uncomparable with living cricketers in the World.. I ask u 2 mind ur business Mallya is happy because he is getting returns what he is invested on Dravid,, not like Sachin or Ganguly who thrown out by KKR, and Dhoni sachin, yuvaraj and bhajji who wont give profit to the franchisee,, first ask these useless to perform. then come to DRAVID is LIVING LEGEND for Indian Criket and if Srikanth picks him up WC-11 we have a better chance to win the world cup or God saves Dhoni TEAM..

"Practical dravid fans should hope that he retires" - Thats what i pray for. . . to avoid any humiliation. My prediction is, a matured guy like Dravid won't take himself to that point of humiliation. He'll retire from cricket by this year(surely from IPL). But he may wait for any World cup chance.

In the 2nd edition, RCB were runner up. 3rd edition, they came third.
I have seen qyuite a few message asking about Dravid's retirement- can you show a better behaved person in Indian Cricket(may be other than Sachin, selfless, non controvertial, fit and agile? No chest thumping, swinging walking styles and very effective. Man learn to respect these kinds of people as they dont come in groups-- there are only one or two at any particular time. The day he feels he cant contribute, even without asking he will quit.

These people will argue for worthless punks like Rohit sharma, Virat, Yousuf, D.Karthik, R.Jadeja and so on.... Cricket board too rely much on them... The real climax is when dravid,sachin and laxman retires...

What about SANJAY MANJREKAR and RAGHURAM BHAT ? Why BCCI had not given them enough exposure in International Cricket level ?

Well Said .If you take the greats in all form of cricket Dravid finds a place in all forms for his consistency . If you take INDIA alone he is the next great to SACHIN . People who don't know real cricket will abuse him .
