Enough of him. Tired to see his tortoise paced batting. He just cant score quick runs. He should have been kicked out from the Eng series.
2010: Ind vs Aus..Test 1 2nd Innings: 13 (34) Test 2 1st innings 1 (7)
2010: Ind vs NZ: Test 2 1st Innings : 45(144) Ind vs NZ.. Test 3 2nd innings : 1 (16) 2010: SA vs Ind ...Test 3: 1st inns: 5 (16) 2nd innings 31(112) Test 2: 1st inn: 25 (68) 2nd inn: 2 (7) Test 1: 1st inn: 14 (42) 2nd inn: 43 (109)
Enough..or u guys want some more...U all blind dravid supporters realize. .time to kick him out.
Remember because of his slow paced innings, we could not go for win in Dominica. Second test also his slow innings with Laxman made the draw. But all say weather is cause.
Dravid..Please take rest. We have seen enough of you.

Rightly said. But Dravid needs to score at a faster rate than he is currently doing. Had someone in the team played like Sehwag last test against WI India would have won. Had Dravid been agressive he could have given even Sachin a run for his money.

Because of Dravid we won the series. How can we forget his superb 100 in the test where he only made the difference as bowlers did well on both sides. While chasing one batsman needs to stay at one end and Dravid is the best to do. Other guys need to go for quick runs. thats how any team was supposed to play. India can within no time get in to trouble if someone like Dravid doesnt stay. Pl dont talk about Sehwag. Sehwag is great player no doubt but he just plays every ball whether it is 0/3 or 300 for no loss. And this is just perception that Sehwag won more matches. Please check Cricinfo and see how many matches were won by India when Sehwag played. Here is the data: Sehwag played 87 India won 35 Sehwags centuries in won matches: 7 out of total 22 (31%) Average in won matches: 57 Overall average: 53
Dravid: Played: 153 Matches won by India: 54 Centuries in Won Matches: 14 out of total 32 (44%) Average in won matches: 65.7 Overall average: 52.4 Hope the data clearly shows who contributed more to win. Even if I dont want the discussion comes about Sachin also. His figures are: Played: 177 Matches won by India:61 Centuries in Won Matches: 20 out of 51 (40%) Average in won matches: 67.5 Overall average: 57
If we need to assess some one this is how we need to do.
Our memory is short. Two examples, we quickly forgot Dravids contribution in the same series and remember only 3rd test We forgt Dhoni's aggressive declaration and remember 3rd test onl

dravid is needed, whatever works for india is good. if you can produce 5 sehwags who are fit, then i will take them.
enemies of their own people.....just look at the way some of the posters comments here....they hates their own legends and heroes...just to gratify themselves.
have you ever thought why?
After 9/11 there has never been a single major terror strikes in USA.
On the other hand, after 26/11, we are witnessing another major terror strikes.
Reason: USA people love their country and people. USA strongly believe in safeguarding its citizens at any cost....
while in India, even after 26/11 the UPA has been busy in looting its citizens and fooling its citizen by having useless talks with Pakistan....
they never bother to strengthen the security.
All we hear are hollow....meaningless Statements.
Congress and its pseudo- secularism is the cause of all our misery.

That's because we are not united. We have different mother tongues, different communities, different religions, different castes. There is no common identity.

We do have unity. But everyone is concerned about their own prob. If there was no unity, then people wouldn't have helped those affected by bombs. We have unity, but those people in the govt hardly care for the peoples' safety.

Sorry. I agree Govt can do more. But we also have the responsibility to inform any conspicuous observations. You talked about US where the citizens are also responsibile. Did we inform police when there is any abnormal pattern. Did we look at any such things in that perspective ? No need to Convince any one. Let us convince outselves. But as Anand said, we are the people who go and help the people. Great Mumbai showed it again. No one waited for rescue team and locals helped the injured. In that aspect I dont US is ahead. They just wait for Rescue team to do their job.
