We lost all the matches in England even though Dravid scored many runs. His style of batting should change. Standing at the crease for many hours and scoring runs is not doing any good for the team.

If he won't have stayed, the test match would have finished in less than 3 days , my dear friend Rajan

Are we going to play this trio till the end of the world. Let some younger players also given a chance to play. These players also got an entry when Seniors players opted out or overlooked by the team management.

Thats only I was trying to say through many messages here. He has the ability to score more freely with his experience. If he is not willing to do that, it is a boring game for all. Even those who support him also will switch off the TV after seeing Dravid playing for one or two hours.

I have expressed my openion and no intention to provoke anyone. Unlike the subcontinent, overseas pitches are not suited for over defensive approach. If I am hurting someone's feelings., I am sorry for that. But I prefer to stick to my views, it may be wrong or right. Normally I prefer not to enter into any controversies in the public forums like this and now feel that I could have kept my feelings within my self. Anyways, let us pray for an Indian win in the next test. Happy New Year to all of you, w/ther you liked my views or disliked, it is irrelevant and my wishes are for all of you my friends.

I think, I dont agree with your views about trio but you didn't hurt or provoke anyone..You merely spoke your mind off..and so does others..Believe me , we have seen worst on this forum...you are cool ..In fact u have sensible heart to understand others feelings ..I appreciate it ..We can agree to disagree and trust me its very mature feeling. Those who write hurting or hateful all the times, feel powerful for moment. But everyone knows that they are at the bottom of human hierarchy. Hope my posting put smile on ur face.Happy New Year to all...
The team should win matches. Players like Sangakkara, Jayawardene, Misbah, Younis Khan, Brendan Taylor are far better than the Indina trio of Dravid, Laxman and Tendulkar. These guys are not capable of facing genuine pace
Hi Rahul Dravid, you are the only MR DEPANDABLE in all forms of the Game Called Cricket. Congrats,the most deserverd NO 1 Batsman in the year 2011.I wish you better 2012 & many more years to come....Y N Mathur- New Delhi
I feel it should be on the basis of average and not number of runs...see Alister cook & Ian bell their average is high and thats why england is number one test team in the world...isit not..rediff pls correct your stance or the title...may be top scorer is Dravid and not the no.1 player..btw ..note that the best test batsman of our times & the most centuries maker Sachin is at the bottom with only one century.... what an irony!!!
in test cricket a great batsman is one can strike a the balance between attacking and defense batting---he is someone who is best in both attack and defense.
Dravid may be very good defensive batsman who takes zero risk no matter what the situation is, but he is average attacking batsman. Therefore, he is not great in my book. Same is the case with Sehwag.....who is just opposite of Dravid.
Brilliance of Darvid is Undisputed truth and it will last for years to come. The duo Dravid & Laxman has gained a great respect and admiration for Indian Cricket which can never be compared.
They will remain as Genius of Indian Cricket's past, present and the future inspiration.

That's why people lost interest in test cricket. (not against laxman.)

It is a relief when Dravid gets out !!!! It is so boring to watch him play. Sports is for entertainment and not for personal mile stones.
