there's already a poll which says should dravid remain as a captain FYI. if you dont ike the tide of opinion, maybe you should shift to sify or times, or wherever the going gets good for you! seriously! * as a captain, i doubt dravid's got the same perception of ganguly. when you move confidently, people take you into confidence, regardless whether you are good or not, its human psychology to support a good looking/ or a good sounding leader. ganguly was much more than that - he was effective as a captain too. * dravid surely is a step below in terms of cunning that ganguly had. * somebody here opined that ganguly inherited a wrecked team, and he took it to greater heights. thats absolutely true. but , there's a corollary to it too - dravid inherited a team which was doing good, and to sustain it is difficult . its like a race where if you are not fit - after a while your pace drops. (the fitness part ehre is the bad selection policies and other evils that indian cricket, and indians in general ssuffer from - lack of being organised, or discipline). the same happened to even ganguly, sustaining like aussies demands a very high discipline in every aspect of life and the game. * dravid did fairly well, being like a diplomat, he's prone to indecision, and bad decisions. being a shrewd leader like ganguly, you can always deflect criticism or no one will question you when the going is good and yu have an occasional blip. (by shrewd i dint mean ganguly was bad - but he used the tactics like keeping steve waugh waiting at the toss. that was fabulous, he beat aussies at thier mindgames)
