Dravid & BCCI - Big time losers.
by Dennis Christie on Apr 10, 2007 12:44 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Both Dravid and BCCI have one thing in common-They are big time losers. They are bunch of compromising gutless people who are second to none when it comes to losing matches for India. Dravid who lacks strong personality is perhaps the worst captain, forget his cpataincy record, in the history of Indian cricket.

mr.dennis u couldn't understand very simple things. dravid is a good captain because he was unable to read the pitch against bangladesh and choose to bat first; that is why we are out of world cup and that is why he is rewarded by bcci.
it is simple.

Why do we need strong personality in this role for a game that requires team effort?Dravid is actually doing the right things & consulting the other team members in decision making.The only mistake he made is by supporting his senior team mates which has back fired on him.

make your mind empty before commenting my friend according to you what are the merits a captain should have first and then how do you assess a captains ability on whether the sucess and failure or you mentioned personality cricket is a team game to taste the sucess contribution from all players is essential there is a clear criterion to measure captains ability on fielding how he utilises the available resources and contain the opposition and control the game by using his brain and win matches for the country.when the batsmen let down the team the captain cannot be held accountable and undervalued him.in this regard dravid is not responsible for this world cup debacle whole team particularly the batsmen shoul be held responsible and ganguly sachin sewag herbajan yuvraj should be removed from the team.
