Dravid as Catain!
by Muralidharan Jagannathan on Apr 08, 2007 10:41 AM

We can say the most over rated player in cricket is Dravid. Has he anytime dominated a bowler while batting. Never. Rather he'll allow even a part time bowler to dominate him. He has the rare talent of finding the fielder where ever he is and sending the ball to him straight not even allowing himself a single. never plays with softhand -which even tailenders do easily- and unable to rotate strike. putting pressure to rest of the team to bat. How many times he has come into the field for batting and builded up unnecessary pressure to the rest of the batsmen who has to come to play.
It is a pity he is still regarded as the best batsmen. Remember in Worldcup 07 match against Srilanka everyone know india lost when yuvaraj is out even dravid know that. at 112/6, 22 overs left and reqd rate 6.61 can any captain give up even trying? in such an important match. we would have had a little hope even if it is anyother player who is batting. yuvraj singh and agarkar, dhoni and agarkara etc. but not dravid and agarkar. dravid cannot win matches single handedly. If any body thought that India can win worldcup with his captancy it is definitely a wishful dream. He is the most undeserving captain for the worldcup of all.
