It is high time for Ganguly to keep quiet Ganguly has done everything to spoil discipline as the people from the region are famous for. Dravid is a victim of the Media including the newspaper Telegrph which publishes Ganguly photo daily as if some ritual is going on. All credit to Dravid for keeping tempers cool and sail through successfully

hahahah U R A LOOSER....
LIKE GREG CHAPPEL KIRAN MORE AND RAHUL DRAVID.....
Dhoni proved in matter in 3 matches that Dravid's captaincy was a burden on India. Ganguly is still the most successfull captain of india. Chappel and Dravid resulted in Bhaji sewag zaheer ganguly pathan to go out...this was the core of the team.

Very sorry to say that most successful captain is Ganguly is all crap. Now Dravid is most successful Captain. Read below.....
Captaincy records
Saurav Ganguly
ODI matches captained 147 Matches won 76 Win percentage 51 % Wins against quality oppositions Aus 4 Eng 7 NZ6 Pak 7 SA 7 SL 6 WI 8 total 46 Win percentage quality oppositions drops to 31 %
Rahul Dravid
ODI matches captained 75 Matches won 41 Win percentage 54 % Wins against quality oppositions Aus 1 Eng 8Pak 5 SA 4 SL 8 WI 8 Total 34 Win percentage quality oppositions drops to 45 % Difference in wins against quality opposition is whopping 14 percentage !!!
Test record of ind last 2 capains.
Ganguly Matches 49 Won 21 win raito 1.62 Dravid Matches 25 Won 8 win raito 1.33
Ganguly 9 out of 21 against minnows Dravid 1 out of 8 against minnows
Tendulkar none out of 4 against minnows. Because of Dalmiya lot of matches were organised against minnows to boost records
Revised records against quality opposition
Ganguly Matches38 Won 12 win raito 0.31 Dravid Matches 23 Won 7 win raito 0.30
The result is just opposite the popular perceptions..

Are you mad after seeing performance in world cup you mean to say Dravid is Hero.So my advice is to you please go mental hospital as soon as possible.

Further Ganguly performance in 2003 world cup.
Ganguly%u2019s own performance in World Cup 2003 matches which all his supporters are claiming as tall.
Against major oppositions where opening partnership was spoiled by Ganguly
8 v New Zealand at Paarl 9 v Aus at Centurion 19 v Eng at Durban 0 v Pak at 48 v SL at Johannesburg 3 v NZ at Centurion 24 v Aus at Johannesburg
And now look Tiger against minnows
112 not out v Nam atPietermaritzburg 107 not out v Ken at Cape Town 111 not out v Ken at Durban 24 v Zim at Harare
Not out against minnows to swell averages but mediocre batting performance. Now go and find out why we went to Finals who scored there? Keniya went to semis as England and New Zealand surrendered matches and points as protest against Zimbabwe regime for their safety. And those were supposed to be played there in Zimbabwe.
and as England and New Zealand surrendered their matches in protest against Zim regime Kenya came to semis.

i totally agree with bango, gangu's batting was pathetic for last 2 yrs, he was in team only b'coz of captainship. he didn't do any thing special in previous world where reached in final. In this world cup his and tendu slow batting against bangladesh cost us match. if u guys forget check for clips on net. dravid never got full support of the team. key players used to give contrasting statements further to worsen the confidence of captain's morale. in all u can dravid had bad time as captain. all the time media and people were behind him.

Played slowly spoiling the opening. When he plays slow he can score some at the cost of team. Playing slow to settle in is understandable but, He can not accelerate after settling in.
Example is Last English tour ODI as he tried to accelelerate he looked funny. The crux of the matter is he can not take on quality opposition bowling. How he faces short pitched stuff? It is shame we call him international standard. He is not fit for International arena and blocking place of Yuvi in tests and Sharma Karthik like many youngsters.

I think Ganguly is the best captain of India & Dravid is the great batsman of India. Nothing any matter to compare these guys. I think Dhoni is the right choice for Captaincy for next few years

Dada spoiled party by scoring very very slow against Bangla Desh. Any way that mediocre batsman has not won any match for us for long time to come.
