True. But Rahul lacked courage and was always a defensive person whether it was on the ground or off the ground. He could never be a leader. If today, Rahul is even kicked out of Indian Team, not a single teammember is going to voice for him. And now, don't say because he doesn't involve in politics. What politics did Dhoni play? Nothing. He has the aggression and passion which is the trademark of a successful and popular captain.
