No place for Dravid, Ganguly in ODI side
2008-01-21 06:37:00 It was MS Dhoni all the way. The ODI and T20 captain's imprint on the 16-man squad chosen on Sunday for the ODI Tri-series in Australia is loud and clear. The selectors went along with Dhoni's judgement - after consulting Test captain Anil Kumble - to pick a young squad with a major focus on fielding abilities because the bigger grounds in Australia require strong throwing arms and swift movers. It meant that both Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid find no place in the team, as reported by TOI on Sunday. The think-tank says it's trying to learn from the ODI series loss to Australia at home which it believes was lost due to poor fielding and slog-overs bowling. Also, Dhoni's deputy Yuvraj Singh has got a reprieve for now, but his attitude and fitness will be under the scanner. Manoj Tiwary, Munaf Patel and Yusuf Pathan have been named as standbys. From the team that last played an ODI series, Ganguly and Murali Kartik were left out while an unfit Zaheer Khan was not considered. In t...

Rahul Dravid plays a superb inning to prove dropping him is a big mistake
2007-11-06 18:58:00 If the Indian selectors now don't recall Rahul Dravid into the team then it can be known that there are some other reasons other than the form of Rahul Dravid which dropped him from the team. Because the inning played by Rahul Dravid for Karnataka against Mumbai in the Indian domestic season. Dravid seemed to be in a superb touch as he scored 214 of 330 balls including 21 fours and four sixes.Dravid didn't seem to be an out of form batsman as Dravid started off with a fluent drive through covers off Iqbal Abdulla and continued to bat positively as the new ball was taken in the fourth over of the day. Dravid showed his full repertoire of strokes - there was a hook and a pull, two crashing drives over cover, a steer to third man, a leg glance, a cut and a few lofted drives against the spinners to the straight boundary. He hit three sixes too, sending the ball out of the ground on one occasion when he swung Abdulla over long-on.This is the best reply given by Dravid to the selectors ...

The exclusion of Dravid !
2007-10-30 14:47:00 There is a hue and cry raised about the dropping of Dravid. He was dropped only for ODIs and not Tests. He is off form also. SO one cannot completely criticise the selectors. There are 33 players on BCCI payroll. It was a very young side which brought India the T20 World Cup. Not the seniors !We should give more chance to youth, to Badrinath, to Tiwari, to Praveen Kumar, to Yousuf Pathan, to Rohith Sharma etc. Then only can we have a powerful team. We are not disrespecting the Three Muskateers ( Dravid, Sourav and Sachin ) but think of India after 5 years !

2007-09-17 18:58:00 Rahul Dravid have resigned from the captaincy of Indian Cricket team. He had resigned from the team after they loose the Natwest series by 4-3 with england. India played pretty good with a very good game by sachin tendulkar and saurav ganguly. Now India is playing twenty20 in the captaincy of MS Dhoni.They're already out from the game after they lost the game with new zealand yesterday. Indian Cricket seems like dieing. The new captain has not yet been decided yet but I guess it will be someone among Yuvraj Singh, Sachin and MS Dhoni.

Who knew Sachin's name will not crop up even if BCCI wanted a change. So this the short cut. Who cares for scruple? At least Greg Chappell did not.2. It served Greg Chappell because he was assured of the "His Master's Voice" for till 2007 World Cup. It was also made sure by Rahul Dravid's appointment till WC 2007.3. It suited Sharad Pawar's group because killing Saurav Ganguly was to get at Jagmohan Dalmiya.John Wright adapted because the only only way which was known to John Wright was getting players on his side.

2007-08-24 20:21:00 Rahul Dravid has played a superb knock of 92 not out of just 63 balls agianst England in second ODI including 11 fours and 1 six. Its really difficult to believe that the man who deals on singles got 93 with a strike rate of 150. When I remember Dravid, I remember him as a very defensive cricketer, hitting no boundries and playing boring cricket but his game really changed my mind. Well done Rahul Dravid. |
