Isnt RD being given very less chance? He s the man who need bit time to settle down and then keep goin . I want to see him batting at least no.3. I always pray , Kallis to get out. I m sorry , its against the team.But i m sorry , I love dravid . Wat u say ?   

Nope wrong idea… RD n kallis play the anchor role while others go for their shots thats how it works….  if kallis gets out early only in that case RD will be promoted…

The best position possible for RD to bat on is no.3. That is his comfort zone, and the team will be befitted if he bats in that position. With RD anchoring the innings at one end, and another batsmen firing all cylinders, the opposition will have no clue whatsoever, to put a lid on the scoring rate. The consolidation on one end provided by RD will also mean that the other batsmen will get a chance to freeze arms and play their natural game. When we have one of the world’s best no.3 batsman, why not use him to the maximum benefit possible?

rd is best as opener bcoz he plays in gaps

Cant understand ur strategy by keeping Dravid to bat as low as No6/7/8..

To hell with ur strategy..under using n insulting one of the greatest legends… whn two spinners r bowling, u send KP to bat ahead of Dravid…Even the Zimbabwe team captain will know tht KP cant play spin well…..

DONT USE DRAVID FOR YOUR FRANCHISE ADVERTISEMENT AND BUY FANS….................U LOSE ALL THE SUPPORT OF DRAVID FANS..

NO MORE RCB for me..i wish Dravid plays for other franchise in d next season…

I think enough of RD humiliation…
WAT DA HELL IS DAT BATTING ORDER..!!!!??  “” Even the Zimbabwe team captain will know tht Kp cant play spin well… “” & Kohli sent against Murali keeping Dravid in the dugout..!!This is totally insane..
KUMBLE’S DECISIONS REGARDING SHUFFLING THE BATTING ORDER ARE   REALLY WORST..

DONT USE DRAVID FOR YOUR FRANCHISE ADVERTISEMENT AND BUY FANS….................U LOSE ALL THE SUPPORT OF DRAVID FANS..

NO MORE RCB for me..i wish Dravid plays for other franchise in d next season… 

+1

This is INSANE.

If this is way RCB captain Coach and management want to deal with Indian Batting Legend Rahul Dravid than they must be ready to loose thousand and thousand of fans.

RCB Coach and Captain cannt insult the Indian Batting legend like this.

What they want to tell the world ?

Kholi is better batsman than Rahul Dravid while playing Murali ????

This is INSANE i repeat.

I am from Delhi and a ardent RCB fan from 1st edition but sorry to say if RCB dear to insult the ICON of Indian batting Rahul Dravid like this than be ready to loose lots and lots of fans like me.

I strongly agree with ur point . If u playin KP coz u paid him a bomb , do u think he worth that ? If kallis can score 52 from 49 , cant dravid be better than that . He has better strike rate than him. Even kp has pathetic ipl career . Doesnt he deserves much more ?

Is this way u treat dravid after playing very good in both the season? S KP a better batsman for spin than dravid ? If kallis can play 49 call 53 , cant Dravid play better than that . Does if play pathetic than makin a over maiden ? My suggestion to send kp back home when Rossy returns and play Dravid up the order ! I guess u guys learn form this match !

Ya RD shud be sent higher , Maybe Pandey and Uthappa shud open , cos we dont care who has orange cap , all we care is that RCB shud win , Dravid shud be sent 1 down , am sure he wud rectify his running brw wickets , kallis SR is too slow , and he shudnt be sent wen RCB bats first

RD can surely play better than This

and more thing , if somebody wanna Support CSK and get lost from here

rcb doesn’t deserve people like dravid…i wish pune buys him next year…

really too much shuffling and playing with his batting position…

ppl like kholi are thought of future captains who are blaming RCB management for losing his spot in indian t20 side….

wat to Go RCB..

If anyone from RCB management care to read this letter than they should know this is not instant outbrust of emotions from Rahul Dravid fans.
We have been seen a series of instances where Kumble and Jennings are trying to sideline Indian Batting Icon Rahul Dravid.

Why the hell Ray said before the atart of the tournament that Rahul will be the best player of T 20 ?

Do i Need to post the whole interview of Mr. Ray ?

If he think what he said than why he is not allowing him to come up the order ???

Did he lied in that interview ???

Why the hell send Rahul Dravid to bat only at 40-4 ?

Why dont send Rahul bat at 110-3 ???

What is KP score in IPL 2??
What is White score in IPL 1 ???

Mr. Kumble & Mr. Ray you can fool some people some time but you cant fool all the people all the time.

basically they think of dravid only when team flops…or in tough conditions..

lol the RR today would have been much higher if dravid had batted at 3 or 4..

they are potentially wasting great experience…

Meks - 01 April 2010 04:59 AM

For Gods sake, pls release Dravid from RCB, thr will be 9 franchise waiting to grab himmmmmmmmmmmmm…........

very true….................

there must be something wrong with the RCB think tank
how the hell can you explain a batsman of dravids calliber not batting in a match
what is the logic behind that?? you guys are insulting a legend who has scored more than 10000runs
both in test matches and oneday cricket
he should be opening the batting with uttappa or manish instead of kallis who is wasting too many deliveries to get to a 50
and remember you only had dravid to score the bulk of the runs in both the previous editions

Icon player of RCB Coach Jennings

no more support for RCB now, I will support my home team Delhi.
Enough of humiliation by RCB, they have to realise that majority of RCB supporters only support RCB only because of Rahul Dravid

they (RCB) is trying to play the games with the Dravid Supporters, go to the hell RCB

Enough of humiliation by RCB, they have to realise that majority of RCB supporters only support RCB only because of Rahul Dravid
