No he shouldnt yet, he is on step 1 of the exit program, next he has to be dropped, then the selectors have to be ridiculed, the local govt has to pass a legislation to re-instate him, then he has to act hurt
Then it is time for him to retire
We have a long, tested tradition for this path, No need to break the tradition😉 Till then he can work on getting himself in top 10 in # of hundreds scored, top 5 in # of runs scored
Dont get me wrong, I love Dravid, Tendulkar, Ganguly, Laxman, but someone has to pull them aside and tell them to walk away with their head held high, someone who has done it himself and there is noone who fits that bill

He has really lost his form since he stepped down from captaincy, but even then hes a class player..and class doesnt fade away, a cricketer's form can and does 😊 I think he can stay for at least a yr or two, and maybe next yr might be better for him. I personally really like Dravid out of the Indian team as hes a really classy batsman..so I'd prefer him to try his best starting onwards from next yr. If not, Im pretty sure Dhoni will kick him out like other senior players on the Indian team have made their exit under Dhoni.. So its better Dravid tries getting back on track if he wants to play sum more cricket, b/c he still has it in him.

Dravid is such a lovable figure and been in cricket a long time. India owes it to him to let him make his own decision on when he wants to quit.

Yes, when he goes on to bat he closes his eyes to the stadium and all cricket fans in the world.

😆😆😆 so true, I was all along Ganguly in his down time and was also in favor of Tendia to play next worl cup..but as far as dravid goes, cann't make up my mind and yes best for him to walk out with head held high. He is one of great players, nation had. For him 👏👏👏
