The rules that are applicable to Tendulkar and Ganguly are not applicable to Rahul Dravid! So, the fact that Rahul Dravid failed as a captain; that he is a slow coach on the field of play and he is in average batting form does not matter to the selectors!! So, Tendulkar and Ganguly have been "rested" due to the world cup debacle but Dravid has been incentivized for India's "great" performance in the WC!! Strange rules!!

thats the problme with our selection system. We select the captain first and then the team next. But this should be the other way arround. Select the best 11 member team and select the captain to lead the team. If this is the case, Ganguly can never find a place in the test team and shouldnt play any matches so far and same goes to DRavid may not be 100%, first atleast 50%. May be he can enter the team as a wicket keeper as did in 2003 and then captian the side :):):)

Upadrasta I think ur memory is very poor.In the latest test series Ganguli was the top scorer and if a top scorer can't find a place in the team then who eles can and if he does not find a place then the question mark can be raised against selectors or so called adjudicators like u.
