Dravid has lost all of the overseas tours, viz SA, Westindies, champions trophy and now Worldcup. He is not able to take the burden of captaincy. He should be replaced. We can make Laxman the captain of the test team and Yuvi as the captain of the "One day" team.
The teams failure cannot be termed as a collective failure. Dravid, Shewag, Zaheer and Munaf played their part well. The failures are from Sachin, Dhoni, Yuvraj, Uthappa, Ganguly, Agarkar and Harbajan.
Sachin should take the responsibility and retire from both forms of the game. He should help identify new talent and guide the team from outside. Its high time for the BCCI to organize a big send of party for Sachin, Ganguly and Kumble. The deserve a "Royal" exit.

Make Laxman the captain..what a joke! What would be better is make Kapil the captain. If we are going to have a fossil as our captain then it is better we take the most successful fossil.

Which Indian captain has won Overseas tours i.e. Test Series. For how much time had he been the captain before touring overseas.
It's just Dravid's misfortunte that when he became the captain - the big guns performing for India - i.e Sehwag, Pathan, Harbhajan, Tendulkar were no longer in form. Even under Ganguly - India was winning matches due to Sehwag, Pathan because while one scored runs at brisk the other got the opening batsmen quickly.

Offcourse don't forgetten the lost big Gun under Ganguly i.e Laxman. Ganguly was a lucky captain that Laxman was in full flow during that time.

How can we say Agarkar included in failure catagoery.What we should expect from him.Shewag made 100 than in vital game how can he play this type of shot.He does have any sense to play in this situation.
