People are talking a lot about dropping dravid and asking him to retire., Hope they are not looking into one aspect.
If Attapattu the srilankan cricketer has born in India he would not have got a chance to play international cricket because he scored one ducks in his first 8 innings still srilanka supported that guy and he prooved his ability
Even now you see "Hayden" and "Ponting" are not performing and they are in lean patch but I hope no austalian citizen is crying to drop them from team and asking them to retire because they realize the ability and know about the game
We should learn if not all atleast this culture from other countries

PVD, how do u know Aussies are not crying for Hayden and Ponting to retire?? How do you know Dravid is blocking the place of the next Sehwag or Tendulkar or Ganguly all of whom are greater players than Dravid??

I was just talking to my colleague (Australian) at work in Melbourne and he is crying for Hayden to retire and give way for another youngster. I guess people who talk about dropping senior players every where. It just shows different approach from different minds.
