The Selectors job is to select the best and effective team led by a captain who has genuine leadership abilities and not to provide comfort to a useless captain with proven record of failure by keeping out players far more talented and capable. Rahul Dravid has proved beyond doubt that he is not capable of handling pressure nor has the ability/natural knack of taking intelligent moves that captains of all leading teams in the world have demonstrated. Nor has he been successful in hiding his ugly instinct of getting rid of everyone he feels is a threat to his position. Had Ganguly entertained similar thoughts and not carried Dravid as a batsman and wicketkeeper to justify his position in ODI team, Dravid might have faded into oblivion by now.
