This a team of 11 players and each one has to understand about their role and responsibilities. And this team has no patronage for the country and their people, what poor Dravid could do with players around him not take responsibilities. Sir. Vishy is right in his arguments.

Many gentleman in other cricket teams took the responsibility in the past for their defeat in the world cup and resigned, although 11 players were playing in their match.
Dravid should also take the responsibility that he could not lead the team properly and resign gracefully before he is sacked.

My Dear Friend,
You are not even aware that on the day of defeat, in the press conference Mr. Dravid fully accepted his responsibility for the losing the match, even though it was not his problem.
Did Dravid ask Mr. Ganguly the sucker to waste 23 balls to make only 7 runs, Did Mr.Dravid tell Mr. Sachin to score "0" and get out Bowled, with more than 15 years of experience in professional cricket worldwide.
Did Mr. Dravid ask yuvraj to get himself runout, even after telling him to stay on the wicket to have his cool head. Did Dravid ask Mr. Long Hair Style Dhoni to get out so cheaply to score "0", is this the same Dhoni who demolished the same Srilankan side a year before. Did Mr. Dravid ask all the rest of the players not score more than 40 runs all put together.
The only trust worthy he showed on Shewag who scored 48 runs proved better. Australian Umpire had a better role in giving this match to srilankans' think on!!!
With such kind of a selfish mentality with rest of the players, even I personally don't like Dravid to continue as Captain, what kind of personality he is, you ask him to keep wicket he does, you ask to bowl a few overs he does, no mean he is a better fielder than any one else in this team and send him in any position for batting he does play much better than any of these players. His stats proves hims on record.
So why do you want him to be sacked for giving such a dynamic role.
