RAHUL DRAVID - THE WALL

Rahul Dravid born on 11th January 1973 is a former Indian team captain in both ODI and test. He was also named as THE WALL .His test debut was more successful rather than his ODI debut. Later on he accomplished himself more in test cricket rather than in ODI and his contribution in test cricket is much more than in an ODI.

After 2000 he became the most dependable batsman of Indian team. He gets to his remark against  Australia where the Indian about to miss the match after put into follow on he made 180 runs  and hold the partnership of 376 with his teammate V.V.S Laxman who made 281 runs in that match.


After that he was appointed as the captain of the Indian team. But the big failure in his captaincy is 2007 World Cup where the team was eliminated in the first group stage losing to Bangladesh. But over-all his captaincy record was mixed.
