'Dravid has proved his ability as a captain'
by Ramesh Iyer on Apr 10, 2007 12:44 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

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.

CHAPPELL / JAGDALE'S REPORT IS CHANGED AS PER INSTRUCTIONS OF one of bcci official from mumbai

JG Wright      130      68      56&nbs p;     6/0      52.30
GS Chappell      62      32      27&nb sp;     3/0      51.61
       &n bsp;                    & nbsp; 

SC Ganguly             146      76      65 &nbs p;    5      52.05%
R Dravid              65      33       28       4       50.77%
The difference of odi wnnin average is only 1% when compared to succss of ganguly & john AND dravid and chappell
Ganguly and john had advanatage of leading team more Nos of matches( almost double) and for five yrs and dravid and ccahppell did not even completed 2 yrs
IN NDTV big cricket poll survey %u2013 which was conducted by among 15 state criciket associations 80% ppl voted for dravid to retain captaincy
Retain Dravid as captain, Sachin should quit ODIs
Should Rahul Dravid be replaced as the captain of the Indian team?
And the answer was in the negative with 86 per cent saying he should not be removed with only nine per cent saying that he should be replaced.
The rest five per cent did not have any opinion.
