you are the Himalyan Peak Of Indian Cricket....no matter what will be the conditions you will stand tall against all odds.thanks for providing such a great show.
Another pretty ordinary performance from a very over hyped dravid..hes not athletic, loser and never takes the battle to the opposition.,,his running is poor, he drops dollies, creates pressure to other batsment...plesae make way for young blood..even if tey struggle they will learn..drop him pls

hey budhead, keep your young blood, with you and start a new indian team and start touring all over the world,, u idiot, OLD IS GOLD
there is only one player you look up to, that is Dravid. Congrats Dravid. A role model for anybody. Unfortunately India does not have a signle player with Dravid's defence, grit determination, young or old alike.
Congratulations Mr. Rahul Sharad Dravid. You are playing classic cricket in the era of "baseball" cricket. I am sad that crap leagues like IPL and CL are more popular than test series.
Can somebody explain how logical was for the captain to send Dravid to bat inspite of the fact that he had faced 300 balls in the first innings. Why did not Tendulkar & Lakshman not volunteer knowing the fact that Dravid is tired. For a minute keep aside the technical aspect of opening batsmen and look at this with a human face !!!!

Great job Mr Dravid, tou are the unsung hero of indian cricket. I agree Tendulkar should have volunteered to take up the challenge, but when has he. He is too busy in brand building & endorsement.

I second you Mr. Madhu. That goes on to show how selfless and committed is Rahul to the cause of the team and country that is so ungrateful to the great man that he is!
You truely have been India's great wall and it will be hard to replace you. The current crop of younugsters lack application and dedication to become another Dravid or Tendulkar. They very soon get swayed by the glamour and monoey and lose their game. Surely your name will be counted as one of India's batting legends.
Always admired his style of play, conduct off and on field, May God bless him, he is the real hardworker in Indian cricket. I mean u gotta give credit to this man, made a comeback into the odis TWICE once age 36 in 2009 and once at the age of 38 in 2011....SOLELY on the basis of performance.. I am happy he overtook that MORON JOKER sunil GAVASKAR (DOGASKAR), always knew he was a much better player..had he started at 16 like sachin, he might have been ahead of sachin as well
