I have learned everything i know about batting just by watching this man play over the years....he is just the most beautiful batsman to watch when he is in full flow....the cover drives r just magnificent...heck even the flicks towards the leg oose class...one of the great test batsman of all time...no doubts..

@36pratham i clearly said.. dravid is a better test batsman than sir viv ..and i stand by that comment because i think dravid is more technically sound.. that is just my personal opinion.. i never said dravid was a better player or that dravid is an inferior player overall..i think viv richards was an amazing odi batsman as well.. where dravid probably falls short a little bit..and i agree that it's very hard to say which player is better than the other..

[36pratham]

@ambuj1991 viv was better then dravid tell me in the era of viv how many players have better then avg then him infact tell me how many use to have avg of 50 in that period while in dravid many player have that avg in gact many have better avg then dravid viv is a class apart , sachin lara viv all are in same league saying 1 is better then other is injustice to other...

[ambuj1991]

@36pratham firstly..this was a flawless innings by dravid.. now.. with all due respect..viv richards was not a better test batsman than dravid..and you say he was mediocre in ODIs.. he is the 7th highest run scorer and has played the 8th highest number of ODIs ever... forget statistics.. dravid is one of the most technically sound and aesthetically pleasing batsman of all time..that alone makes him a legend of the game..but i do agree that ponting and kallis are up there as well..

[36pratham]

@Kameenah but why do u think he didnt got enough credit , he cosidered as batsman next to sachin in india among top test batsman what else u want he is medicaore in odi and what he got is enough i guess u want that or may be u want that he will get same credit as sachin which is impossible...

[Kameenah]

@36pratham Mate i wasn't saying he was better then sachin but dravid did not get enough credit. He is so under rated, and that's coming from a Brit Pak.

@36pratham Viv Richards probably....But the other three mainly played in the 70s....and I said the last 30 yrs...any way dont hold it againt me..

[36pratham]

@majesticmaniac wrong there are many better batsman the above u mentioned... sachin and lara offcourse no doubt best after then its viv richrds , sunil gavaskar, gary sobers,greg chappel then comes dravid... and among kallis dravid and ponting it can be debatable who is best me being indian would go for dravid but ponting ,kallis also come in same league... may be he didnt get bowlers like what pionting but he get better batsman then what ponting got...

[36pratham]

@Kameenah lols doesnt matter many peaple find him very much boring as well he is technically great but sachin is far better then him.....

[Kameenah]

I might be slated by some Indians but I always preferred watching Dravid bat compared to Sachin. I don't no why there is just so much calmness in him like nature lol he defo did not get enough lime light.

@majesticmaniac

i disagree. ponting on many occasions has held on his own. when i think of dravid, i think of him defending his wicket....when i hear ponting, i only think of one thing: Australia, australia, and australia! what a captain and a batsman ponting has been. dravid a good test batsman, but ponting's record speaks for itself.
