At the age o 38 he looks 83 years old. His running between wickets might have cost at least 30-35 runs for India. This century even though very valuable for India his batting was unassuming and laborious. He better take up coaching youngsters than playing for India.

Where was the batsman at the other end to run another 30-35 runs.It's becos of this unassuming and laborious innings that we have a 300 lead.If you can't understand about playing according to the demands of the situation,you are barking up the wrong tree.

stupid idiotic comments....if u dont understand test cricket and world class batsmenship...jst getlost.....mental fellow...
Rahul, Strained and Stressed, please retire, im sure some one will take care eventhogh we loose couple of match. Also you got strained becuase few catches were dropped, and blame the fielders for straining you to be on field to hit this 32nd century.

Anitha ji this is the game what we call is CRICKET ( Please check the spelling). You can afford India to lose tha match because you are a hyppocrite south indian who enjoys when sri lanka wins. If u dont know the ABCD of the game then please do not poke your stinking nose in the pitch.
nothing more is required jsut see the photos of some of his shots...wow...i have not seen such beauty of head and body position from any in a square cut or a flick....

You have only sen the photos but if you had seen videos you would not have commented. For a batsman of his calibre his century was not a master compilation. He was dropped by Sami at 6 and West Indies bowlers gave several wide and short balls to him for easy hitting. His running between wickets was pathetic. Totally a prospect of retirement in spite of century. His knock looked good because others played badly.

You mean he is a 'match winner'?? When did he 'win' test matches for India except the Perth test which we won?
Dravid is a great batsman guys. But let's accept one thing. He has, for the last 20 years, always performed in the shadow of Sachin,Ganguly and Laxman! Check any test match!
There may be a few games but.. ..everything is there for the people to see!
