I don't fully agree,now after 3 weeks we are trying to wash down what he did:His blunder with the toss against Bangladesh & also his decision to bowl first against SriLanka especially after we managed a world record score against Bermuda ,those were the main reasons for India's early exit.

Despite the failure, I regard Dravid as a person of good character, a reliable batsman and a nice, gery gud guy. But I feel that, as captain, he is the worst India has ever had. BCCI has blundered in retaining him as a captain.
