Does Shah know what the word astute means?
by rijurekh chakravarty on Apr 02, 2007 11:19 PM

Really. Does Mr. Niranjan Shsh know what the English word 'astute' actually means? In all certainty, he doesn't (like he doesn't understand cricket). Off the field, Dravid failed to motivate the players. Dravid failed to bind the players into a unit and was concerned only with building up an anti-Ganguly-Tendulkar camp inside the team. And on the field, Dravid goofed up with field-placings and counting the number of overs bowled and yet to be bowled by an individual bowler. Well, do all these make a cricket captain 'astute'? One thinks, even Mithali Raj is by far more astute than her current (and out-going?) male counterpart in Indian cricket. Either Shah really doesn't know the meaning of the word 'astute' or he is saying this under the sponsors' pressure. After all, the sponsors have already invested a huge amount of money on Dravid's endorsements.
