You forgot weather... Forecast not good. I say it as 60-40 in favor of Eng. Since India always dont do better in first test.
Viru could have made the difference in the upcoming Eng tests. He not being there, opens up doors for english bowlers easily and most important thing is the scoring rate will go down heavily.
Captaincy when Dada took the burden of Captaincy and laid the foundation of present Indian team and Dada being mentor to match winners like Sehwag,Yuvi,Bhajji,Zaheer etc... Dravid was forced into BCCI politics Against Dada by kiran More,Chappel that cut short Dadas cricketing career by few years and Dravid also failed as Captain but no wonder Dravid has been a good test player!!!!!!!!
If in case dravid have not scored century against minnows like west indies .... what was the series result.. have u people think.. what was ur captain doing. Any how u people will come to know in coming series..

See..Im not talking of sehwag here. SA series is the toughest series for India and evryone incl me expected Dravid to do well..but he failed in all 6 innings..and coming to WI..he has done well in first test but thts not an great achievement as a player of his class has to do. If he had scored brisk runs in final day, we would have won also.

decision was from management... dhoni was not confident. And west indies pitch was not easy. even coach, captain, laxman has said. In case while chasing if we have lost.. for that also people will talk rubbish... only 7 top good deliveries from West Indies bowlers have changed the series status..

But not playing the mandatory overs is not in the true interest of the game. If we dont do so, then why we are called No.1?

You should be happy that we are able to draw last test match in WI as Dravid stick to one end. If he got out then we would levelled series 1-1 and would have difficult to hold test rank No#1 during current series against England. Anyway you will see in England series that if Dravid fails then INDIA will not score reasonable score and may get out before 150
Being there in the era when Sachins, Laras and Pontings are playing and still be noticed.... The real hero of Indian Test Cricket is Rahul Dravid. when it comes to open the inning in fast bowler friendly wickets he was the one who raise the finger for the team's cause and be there. When it comes to keep the wicket in One Day Internationals ( remember those days guys when Dhoni was not arround) he was the one raise the finger and purely for the balance of the team. We all know his record both in Test as well as the One day international. Surely he is Unsung Hero of Indian cricket, thanks to media....
