His teammates failed completely and RCB lost most of matches. Except dravid, pravin kumar and zahir khan all other 8 players are not performing and not shown even 10% commitment, kallis, misbah (except 1 mtch, kohli, C white all failed with bat in crucial games. Zahir N P Kumar took wkts but both gave too many runs and bowled too many extra runs.Against DDRs first10 overs 100 runs, 70 runs by zahir and P kumar..it is not captain but other big should be sacked..
Rahul dravid needs no to t prove anything to anybody Dravid has scored 328 runs in 12 matches, at a strike rate of 129.13 and an average of 29.81 . When he was declared unfit for odi he scored 10ks runs batting in 1 to no 8 position and most successful odi captain Highest catch holder for India in both forms of game He is best in test format of cricket. He is highest contributor(78%) for the victory in test cricket as a batsman ,more worth contribution than gavaskar and 10dulkar. His contribution to Ganguly success as test captain is a record in game history
Dravid was nominated and his name shortlisted for ICC captain of yr during 1st yr of his captaincy.Which ultimately went M Jayavardhane. (ICC award nomination and selection is done by 30 Intl' cric experts not by ind media or players sponsers/chelas or ind politicians influence) Dravid proved he is player can fit any format of game and bat at any NO .. against all odds and can score runs.. Dravid never got acclodes whatever the amount he deserved

yes correct. He was a valuable player in history but not in present. Now he can only be a valuable farmer. so he must go to a field, but not a Cricket field, instead a paddy field. And as far as Ganguly is concern, he is a fit candidate for the post of a cook, it is well known fact in Kolkata that saurav can cook machher jhol (fish curry) better than a five star cook. So it is my suggestion to both of this history player to leave cricket forever and join their new job at the earlest.

Dravid should not have accepted for 20/20 and spoil his name. He is legend of cricket and not for the cricket crackers

Dravid proved he is player can fit any format of game and bat at any NO .. against all odds and can score runs.. Dravid never got acclodes whatever the amount he deserved for his performance. Ind cric experts and media always biased to dravid captain batsman fielder and player dravid was blamed many times for the reasons he is responsible for. Inc ex cric experts criticized dravid irrespective he performed or not, team won matches under his captaincy. But Mr. Cool dependable Wall Dravid always stands tall with 3 ICC awards, 3times selected for ICC test team, 2 times for icc odi team , played on behalf of WXI .. this honour did not happen to even G8 10drlulkar also. A legend have more respect in int%u2019l cricketing fretarnity
