I think none of them should end,1st about Sachin,no1 can doubt his talent,if any,his reflexes are getting weak,but his presence in the dressing room is even Dravid and Chappel admires,as was done by Sourav and Wright,and he has recently broke the world record,and he is as good as any new talent,just that he exaggerated his dismissal doesnt mean he should be out.

@nd about Sourav,now i think a person who has improved his footwork and fielding so much at this age,that mean he has the spirit,and i think if he gets on a good form he will again be a nightmare for the bowlers.

Guess I could discuss on this topic but I don't get to watch cricket anymore 😭 But koenigbobo do you mean you like Saurav more as a player than Dravid? I am not sure about who is better captain 'coz lots of politics invovled there but as a player I really like Dravid more. He is very stable batsman.

sourav ganguly was much better than rahul,thats completely ur view but if u want to prove Sourav good by proving Rahul bad,than im sorry thats never right,and also Sourav was out coz of his performance,and Rahul is leading the team very well,will get only better by time,but he is super consistent batsman,arguably the most healthy and most consistent,and he can be there to give a positive impact by opening the innings just for he doesnt want a senior player like Sourav as 12th man .

But so was Sachin when he took over as the boss and look what happened to him ... he ever really recovered his previous flamboyance

but still you can see he failed in just a match,ok even if these were batsman friendly wickets,still team almost collapsed in 2nd match after him,and Dravid isnt flamboyant,he plays per situation,he has scored faster also,and at wat he is best also,and he played consistently against Srilanka and S-Africa

am juzz saying dat saurav can lead indian team much better then rahul ! afterall saurav iz senior player !! he lost his cricket cuz of indian coach... n rahul cant lead indian team as good as saurav did !!

n wot r sayin HE CAN BE THERE TO GIVE A + impact bye opening the innings ?!?!!? i think basically rahul iznt a opener he can only give stand to his team when he comz on 3rd or 4rh no . The real openers r sehwag n tendulker or tendulker n saurav ! but he did a big mistake when he came to bat on 1st positon wid laxman !! huh ! hes isnt a hard hiter !
