yes ' date='this is not the time to discuss all this ,but he was pretty much spot on .Like Sachin should have retired after world cup .[/quote'] always easy to say it in hindsight.not many of us wanted SRT to leave right after WC or Dravid after England. anyways its a personal decision

Legend, the ultimate team man and always gave his all for India. Will really miss watching him bat in test matches. Along with Sachin, he is my favourite player of all time. Good luck in whatever you do Rahul.

Saw a quote on the web People say Sachin is God.... Ganguly is the God of Off side....Laxman is the God of 4th innings.....But when the doors of the Temple are closed, even God is behind the WALL..

He has another record to play maximum consecutive test matches without missing one. can anyone confirm??
No - overall record held by Border and Indian record by Gavaskar. However, Dravid only missed three Tests in 16 years - one against Lanka in 2005 because of a viral infection and two against SA in 2010 after he was hit in the face by Shahadat Hossain in the preceding series. Amazing fitness. I believe Kapil Dev would have held the Indian record but for that Test in the 1980s when he was dropped for playing a bad shot (some politics involved there I think).

Dravid did not take Dhoni's name even once in the speech! :((

Dhoni has a twitter account? Might've asked Raina to tweet on all's behalf..
