Dravid - worst captain
by anurag rai on Mar 22, 2007 06:31 AM

Will india suffer again ...becoz of the captain calling wrong shots...???? well if u think he cant be responsible alone...he can make a difference....

1.playing agarkar....jayasurya will finish the game for india in the first 10 overs with agarkar opening the bowling.
2.dravid needs to choose between
bhajji or kumble
uthapa or pathan
agarkar or sreesanth or pathan.

BUT JUST PICKING AGARKAR WILL CLOSE THE DOORS FOR INDIA.

WHY INDIA LOST?
RAHUL DRAVID IS THE ANSWER.

191 was not easily chaseable on that wicket after looking at the way India batted.the wicket was difficult.
But then we had Rahul Dravid making few blunders:-

1.opening the bowling with Ajit agarkar instead on munaf.
2.Asking Sachin to bowl seam rather then spin.for those who dont know Bangladesh bowled 30 overs of spin...predictable left arm....got 6 wickets.maybe Dravid didnt watch the match when india batted.
3.Munaf and bhajji were putting teh pressure then the smart captain got agarkar back.
4.Sehwag came to bowl when they needed 30 to win.
5.two factors that would haev won the game for india.munaf with new bowl and the spin-bhajji,yuvraj,sachin,sehwag.dravid negated the advantage by using them very poorly.
6.Dravid doesnt look like a confident captain while playing against bangladesh.

THE BOTTOM LINE ...INDIA WONT MAKE IT TO THE SUPER 8....ATLEAST NOT THE WAY DRAVID SHOWED HIS CAPTAINCY SKILLS...IF THEY GET LUCKY THEY ARE NOT GOING ANY FURTHER THEN THE SUPER 8.....

I AM HAPPY FOR DRAVID TO BE THE CAPTAIN AFTER THE WORLD CUP...FOR REST OF HIS LIFE...BUT PLEASE FOR SAKE OF INDIA....GIVE IT TO GANGULY....INDIA NEEDS GANGULY NOW AS A CAPTAIN.
