Dravid has been a successful captain in winning...
by Josyula Murthy on Sep 17, 2007 12:10 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

If you look at the records, Dravid has 53.17% of winning the ODIs that he captained !!!. Ganguly has winning percentage of 51.7% and Sachin just has 33%. Dravid has been the best captain India ever had!!!. It is a bitter truth that many cannot digest!!. Dravid has more average score as captain than score as non-captain!!. It is all North/Pawar's Drama to push out the successful captain.

Sachin had Betters not batters like Azhar, Jadeja, Mongia, Prabhakar in his team. And other useless players from Karnataka during the Gunappa lobbying days.. What do you expect?
That 30% is the matches Sachin won single handedly by captaining those crooks. Goes to show sachin is the best..

Your are perfectly right.Sachins tenure had players like Sujit Somsunder,Dodda Ganesh, Venkatesh Prasad, David Johnson etc. who were from karnataka. Then how do you expect good results.

The stat proves beyond doubt Dravid has better percentage win i.e 53 than Ganguly and Tendulkar. Even in tests he won overseas tours like West Indies after 35 years and England after 21 long years. He and Ganguly captained the won series against Pak. He is the first Indian captain to win a test against SA.
Even in 21 test matches won by Ganguly Dravid scored neary 23 percent of runs at a record breaking rate of 102.which is a world record by itself.
