Its impossible to change the mindset of some people who think Dravid is a worst captain and player. Just for the sake of bashing him up they start writing some shitty comments (the one from Uttam kumar who wants Dravid's leg to be broken). Uttam do you know what cricket is? Do you know how important is Dravid's presence out in the middle for India. Where were you when we were on a winning spree under Dravid, when we won a test Series in WI, when we won a test match (never India had won a test match in SA). All those goody times, Dravid was a shrewd captain and when he fails, he is rotten bad. YOur mindset is like that. go and learn Cricket and learn about the greatness of Dravid before you comment on him. You guys should read Cricinfo and the comments on dravid from our ex-cricketers and also international cricketers. They, by far, are more knowledgable than you and I. Stop commenting some nonsense on Dravid. You want his services to win matches for India abroad and now you want his legs to be broken. Shame on you. Bangladesh have proved their worth by beating SA. Its just that they played better cricket that day and if you look at the way Tamim iqbal batted, you cant bowl to him, every ball he flashed at, met in the middle of the bat and sailed over. Ireland are another bunch of shrewd cricketers. Eventhough they are not winning matches, they make the opposition sweat. Just becoz people like you are throwing shitty comments, Dravids' genius wont falter. He is and will continue to be a gem of Indian Cricket.

When players only go against captain and coach and betray teammates why blame captain or coach??If player can not perform for team what is his role ? He should be kicked out team
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
HARDLY KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT CRICKET.... 1.EVEN IN AUSTRALIA....PONTING WONT BE ABLE TO SAVE HIS CAPTAINCY AFTER WHAT HAPPENED TO INDIA IN THE WORLD CUP.....DO U KNOW WHAT HE WENT THROUGH AFTER LOOSING THE ASHES.
2.BCCI MAKING FOOL OF INDIANS.....YOUNG TEAM AND EXPERIENCED CAPTAIN FOR BANGLADESH TOUR.....EVERONE IS FORGETTING THE POINT GANGULY DRAVID AND TENDU ARE THE SAME AGE....TENDU THE BEST FEILDER AMONG THE THREE AND WE NEED TO HIDE BOTH DRAVID AND GANGULY IN THE FIELD. 3.IF ganguly sachin dhoni yuvraj bhajji zaheer sehwag are on one side and DRAVID ON THE OTHER SIDE FIRST WITH CHAPPEL AND NOW WITH BCCI....THEN WE ALL KNOW WHO IS ON THE WRONG SIDE....THIS IS NOT GROUPISM ITS CALLED TEAM BONDING... 4. WHEN DID DRAVID LEAD FROM THE FRONT.....TO DESERVE CAPTAINCY....HE COULDNT WIN THE MATCH AGAINST SRI LANKA....HE GOT YUVRAJ RUN OUT...I BET POTING WOULD HAVE WON FROM THAT SITUATION BUT....DRAVID IS ANY WAY SHIT....
