I'm not poking fun at Dravid, just highlighting his performance. I have immense respect for Dravid for his contribution towards Indian cricket. But for a graceful exit, he needs to perform in the later part of his career.

Agreed, but in the first innings except Pathan everyone folded for next to nothing!!So why blame Dravid only? Before Dravid, Jaffer and MS Dhobi need to be booted out.

Well, the important factor with MSD is that he have age on his side. Thus a young player is always a wise investment. BCCI would never sack Dhoni simply because they consider him to be the future captain for a long time. Secondly, he is emerging as the 2nd most popular youth icon after Tendulkar. He is one big cash cow for BCCI.

True Rajarshi. Jaffer and Dhobi needs a big kick. Both are heroes of the dead pitches. Only difference between them is one is over hyped and the other is silently keeping his keeping his place in the team for unknown reasons.

I wish we had a Geoff Boycott or a Pankaj Roy whi could bat for 3 days for a draw. Dravid, The Wall seems to have fallen.
