India and the world is much bigger, dear friend!!! if dravid is politician cricketer why he would have been a role model to so many young cricketers? why ICC gave him 3 awards which did not happen to any other cricketer? Why he won Castoril cricketer and batsman of year 2006 ( 4 tims in last 10yrs and sachin also won 4times )?? Why he would have been won MTV Youth ICon of award??? Even knowing that 2 ex captians are fighiting for captaincy along with chief selector are breathing his head , why he is fighting with board for players contract . or fighting against crap statment of vengsaraka about pathana and sewag?? Dravid earns respect of his teammates b'cuz he performed cosistantly for team under pressure. Not by showing his authority on field as a captain?? check the last 6-7 yrs team ind won record in odis and tests/. read stat about dravid's contrubitons in partnerships... ganguly take credit for success of other players and team victory but dravid shared the credit of team win. dravid shared dias while doing press breifs when team won ..had ganguly ever did like that?? When team defeated he pushed dravid to face media... Gnaguly has used politics to stay as captian by using influence of dalmiy He ditched dlamiay when dalmiaya lost power where is intelligence when team required his he was in dressing room/ biting his nails. his succes was anchored by performance of dravid kumble sachin and laxman when team lost it was dravid as VC used to do press briefs. ganguly never dare to face media. who published chapples email to benali newspaper which is owned by ganguly's relative?? Whole country knew he used left party mps inluence to sharad pawar and get back door entry to ind team. His domestic and county cricket was pathatic.He wasnon performing captain for almsot last 3 yrs of his captaincy dravid won test and odis without thendulkar and gangulys. but ganguly never won series without dravid's and tendulakars out of 76 odis win 31 were against bangla,keny namibia and zim when ganguly capatina dravid only 16 months captain, wo 32 odis only 2 against Zim and all other are better team crooked stories are lfoated by ganguly's marketing manager like deshdrohi jadeja, sanjay jha, arun lal.. Dravid had gut wit intelligence .knowing his captaincy days are numbered he is fighting with board for players contract, sewag agaunst crap statement of chief selector, publication of report by team manager... In WC03 india went to final b'cuz of brillient performance of sachin. He won match against pakistan to lead team to smeis. Not b'cuz of ganguly's captaincy or agression ganguly scored a 100 in 2003 against kenya after that no 100 in odis and he won MOS after six yrs this will speaks about his perfromance , why team lost against nz , aussies pakistan SA when ganguly was captain to even bangaldesh also. Ganguly backoff in last moment after seeing greenpitch in nagpur
