Better, do some good job rediff. "Most of such performances came from lower order batsmen who had no or very little batting abilities or were batting under tremendous pressure". Here no other Indian batsman is ready to open, cos they all are under tremendous pressure even playing in their regular slot, but not Dravid. Dravid is the savior not only for Indian cricket and to other Indian batsmen too.

It was a highly idiotic decision to ask Drav id to open. He is a natural No 3 batsman. Also he is not n the best form of his life. Yuvraj Singh was hyped a lot. He is a batsman who can play in flat tracks of Asia. Dinesh Karthik was a better option. He was the top run scorer for India in England. But because he failed to get runs in just 2 tests, he has been thrown away. Why dont they follow the same principle for Dravid and chuck him out of Test Team also. He shiould have been penalised fore the slow game in Oval by BCCI
