Dravid's conservatism
by sameer drolia on Feb 14, 2007 12:26 PM

I am not impressed with Dravid's captaincy which speaks mor of his state of mind. Like last match, when the first up bowlers have been able to strike early blows (58 for 4 in last match & 91 for 5 today), Dravid is more than eager to slip in the extra 10 overs that the part timers are supposed to bowl.

Because of this and thanks to lethargic fielding, we end up easing the pressure and let them settle down. With our batsmen badly out of form (except an oddh in a pan), we start feeling the heat out of nowhere.

Or else, how could we lose the match at Rajkot wherein we had 8 wkts in hand and the reqd rate was 4.5 rpo.
