drawid is the most negative batsman and now his reflexes to defend are also gone. HE will not touch a ball even if there is a 0.005 % chance of getting out which puts pressure on the other batsmen to compensate for one dead end
Commentary when drawid is batting
Shade outside off stump ...drawid shoulders arms....no run Short outside leg ...drawid wayches it into the keepers gloves....no run Overpitched half volley ...drawid is immaculately forward in defense...no run Short Rank Long Hop....drawid defends off the back foot...no run Full Toss .... takes it on the pad ...no run No ball ! ...drawid plays it back to the bowler..one for the no ball Free Hit after no ball .. drawid plays it to to forward short leg....no run
His three centuries in England caused our 4- 0 defeat

Frodo always keeps writing these thingds abt Dravid. He does not understand test cricket. Period. Then he doesn't understand that Drvaid has a calming influence on his partners....no wonder he has had 90 century partnerships. All his fellow team members talk highly of him. May be he has -ve influence on Frodo when he watches Dravid's batting. if that's the case, he can switch off his TV!

We have cricket fans and cricket lovers. Fans look at number of runs no matter how those come, while cricket lovers will enjoy even a good stylish defensive strokes. Your comments about dravid are absurd. Dravid's contribution to Indian cannot be ignored. He is no doubt one of the greatest batsman after Tendulkar. At times, he has proved more useful to the team than Tendulkar for saving and winning more matches.
