Gunner_Mania Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 One last bump n bfore the match. Deep inside I really respect him as a cricketer n tbh wanted him to score runs n pwn me. But my brain always knew that Dravid is not just the right choice for this format. When you see players like VKumar' date=' R Dravid playing ahead of deserving VArun n M Tiwary, u know there is definitely something wrong!! [i']Dravid I know u r a legend but sorry u r just playing in the wrong format and again going to flop today Dravid didnt come out and asked to be picked for this series. Here is his comment from the press conference when it was announced he was picked "Since I had not been picked for one-day cricket for the last two years, I was obviously a little surprised," he said after India's tour match against Northamptonshire. "To be honest, because I had not been picked, I had not informed the selectors or the board of my desire to solely focus on Test cricket. He infact announced his retirement as soon as he was picked, so that there are no such instances in the future. He only agreed to play because he had been selected. He probably would have said no, if he had been asked before picking him for the one day leg of this tour.He has just done what the team has asked him to do, be it keeping wickets back then when Ganguly wanted to play 7 batsmen, or opening the batting in this test series or keeping wickets.
ganeshran Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 :hail: All hail the best batsman ever - Saurabh Tiwary
Sidhoni Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 Last match today, hope he gets a fitting exit

rahulrulezz Posted September 16, 2011 Author Posted September 16, 2011 :hail: All hail the best batsman ever - Saurabh Tiwary This guy smoked all bowlers to bits in Emerging talents trophy in both 4 day version as well as 50 over matched. Scored highest runs in both fomat with highest strike rate. N let's bot forget his contribution for Mumbai Indians. I wud select him over Dravid 100 times out of 100 in both T20s nODIs

Took u 5 matches to come out eh. Law of averages caught up n finally scored one 50+ score in his fifth match coming at 1down in every match. That's the level of our cricket team.
Lord Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 ^ come on dude showing a bit of respect wont show u in bad light.that WAS a good innings
ganeshran Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 nice way to go Rahul rules(not the OP:--D) :hysterical::hysterical:
King Tendulkar Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 I am happy he got the recall. Simply cos it gave him a chance to have a farewell game and get a tremendous round applause. I know he was basically reitred from oids anyway but still I got to my feet to clap him and brought a tear to my eye. Dravid you are legend!
Shane Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 Dravid is a LEGEND! Legend in every sense of the word, in b4 shoaipe's biceps :D

saneindian Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 A true legend for us. Thanks for the memories Rahul. Hopefully whatever test cricket he plays from now on, he scores tons of runs and may the legend grow even bigger.
