The immovable Rahul Dravid struck an impervious 217 against England at the Oval in 2002. His innings lasted 468 balls and 629 minutes as he ground down the England bowlers, who toiled away in the vein hope they might get passed the wall.

He flew on a 21 hour flight from India to west Indies, landed in the night and went to bat the next morning scoring a 100. Pure Wallness!
Must have flown to mumbai to play against windies to score a 100 retired hurt i reckon.

This is poor from BCCI..
This is how a test batting should be.. spending 600 mins , facing 500 balls, scoring 200+ runs in testing conditions.. he had the patience , technique, Elegance.. Rahul is a genius of this format.. just look at the joy and relief of the eng team after his run out.. that's says it all.. and loved the crowd too..
no that's not true i love fravid, but there is no template to batting sehwag was just as effective as dravid but in his own way.
Testing condition???
But sometimes he got too defensive

When I was a kid , I used to hate Dravid for his defensive playing style..I always wanted players like Sehwag, Sachin, Dada, Yuvi etc to be on the strike rather than Dravid cuz I hate how defensive he used to play but as the time flew by I understood how good he was & now a days when I watch test cricket on overseas the man I miss most is ironicaly Rahul Dravid..There can be a replacement for every player in the Indian team(not saying permanently but in short term)..but there won't never be a player like Rahul Dravid again specially in this t-20 cricket era...love u & miss u legend❤ sorry that I used to hate your batting as a kid
K B now u are matured enough. Hail the WALL! DRAVID🙌❤️
100%
So true bro.. Really missed the golden era for the great WALL that would irritated and frustrate the bowlers haha...
Well said brother. 200% agreed to you. I believe we are so lucky that we saw him playing.
Tats the legend dravid
I don't care what anyone says, in my opinion Rahul Dravid was a better Batsman than Sachin Tendulkar... he's a very underrated legend....
True bro
I agree
Outside India.. He has 50 plus avg. In tests outside India
So yes but outside India on foreign soil

This is the why he is called The Wall 🔥 It's not easy to collapse it
wowwwwwwwww
He is played like viru in test match . He made double centuries in each game
It is 110 balls per innings
He played 468 balls in an innings,now a days the whole Indian team is not able play that many balls in an innings.
Now whole indian cricket team not able to make even 217 runs.
Only player in the world who faced more than 30000 delieveries.

"Maybe that was the only way that England can get out Rahul Dravid "
A true under-rated legend of Indian cricket.
At this point I don't even think he's underrated. Many people mention him together with Tendulkar, and many more just a rung unde him.

Standing ovation from England supporters too 😍😍. Love Dravid sir
Actually english supporters are one of the most civilised in the world... They will applaud the opponent even if their team is getting destroyed.... Subcontinent fans on the other hand are completely opposite😂

@arjin kn chutiya
He was not just a very good batsman he was and he is a very good person also huge respect to this man from Pakistan
Playing at 217 and got run out because of the wrong call by his partner. At this only this legend can walk out of the ground with a smile on his face. ❤️
8:31 commentary was awesome,
maybe that was the only way to get Dravid out.
I think this is the type of credit a batsman deserves.
I also think that way
It's awesome but also a little generous to the batsman. Like when Lara was run out on 277, they said the same thing which is a little silly.
Strongly agree mate
I am here to watch this classic after Rahane's run out today at the MCG against Aus. Out on 112. And maybe the only way he was going to get out too today.
Pure class. Loads of love from Pakistan
Muawia khizar ❤️ from India Right back at ya!
Love from India ... Your pakistan had yunus khan ...He has lil bit of glimpse of dravid
Iam from India fan of Wasim Akram, Younis Khan, imran Khan,Afridi,inzimam,akthar just see determination not others
He's a great player yes but I have always wondered why does he evoke so much respect in particular from Pakistanis
My favourite left-hand batsman is brian lara and saeed anwar
*LEGEND DRAVID*
As of Shoaib Akhtar, he found Rahul Dravid as the most difficult batsman to get out.
Im Pakistani & i admire Rahul Dravid.
RSA absolutely he said it
Dude, actually Shoaib's toughest opponent was Inzamam Ul Haq.
Almost every bowler thought the same
@@manpreetmatharucomic You can go through the interviews of Shoaib where he admitted that he could never dismiss Inzamam in the nets, he also said that no one played his lethal fast deliveries better than Inzamam, he placed Rahul at number two.
Undoubtedly one of the finest batsman of all times! Sir Rahul Dravid
I m from Pakistan. But i respect this great indian batsman. Pure class. What a legend he was
Jo 217 par apne partner ke liye runout hokar apne wicket ka balidaan kare

Jo 270 par khelte huye, without considering his triple hundred, team ka runrate badhane ke liye Imran Farhat ki ball par reverse sweep marte hauye bowled ho jaye
Wo Dravid.
Jo Apne last ODI ke 42nd over mein 69 pe khelte huye without going for his hundred, runrate badhane ke liye khud stumped out ho jaye
Wo Dravid.
Jo apne pehle aur akhri T20 mein 3 lagataar 6s laga ke kehar machaye
Wo Dravid.
Jo Sachin kahan double hundred ke race me aage na badh jaae aur jealousy me declare karde woh Dravid .....hahahha ...just kidding
Jo team me extra bowler/batsman accommodate karne ke liye keeper ban jaye.

Jo u-19 team or Indian cricket ke future ke liye ipl ki highly paying coaching ki job chod de.

For me no other batsman can come close to the sheer class and simplicity of Sir Rahul Dravid.
@@abhichaudhary909 Wow!!!Great, loved it bhai.
@@shadabkhan-ys5ob I am talking about the match in which he got his 100th 100 vs bangladesh which India lost and eventually were Knocked out later in the tournament due to this defeat...

Wo Sachin.
Jo apna number 4 position kabhi na chhode
Wo Sachin.
Being a Tendulkar fan myself, I am ashamed of writing this, but it is just because of you I HAD to write it brother, just to let you know that Nobody is Perfect and Nobody can see the future. Dravid didn't know that Pakistan would be folded so cheaply in both their innings and went for a timely declaration, so it was PURELY in Team's interest. Same goes with Sachin, he also didn't had the magical powers to forsee that Bowlers would fail at defending 293 runs vs Bang.
Both were pillars of Team India, So stop using this derogatory language atleast for Legends and this is what expected from "Cricket Lovers". Fans should respect Legends(if not ALL the players) across the globe.
@@ambidextrousseamer7101 I haven't used any derogatory words ...jealousy is a part of human nature....ponting was jealous of Sachin when he was the coach in Mumbai Indians team....ponting did all the hard work but Sachin got all the attention..from the media..that made him jealous....you should see the footage...srt was just a mentor...but all the media persons loved interviewing Sachin and ponting was neglected....Sachin himself has edged and had not walked and then went on to score 117 vs wi in port of Spain in 2002...no one is perfect ...I agree....Tendulkar at times as been not so humble ....he also claimed a catch off Dravid in IPL semi final in 2010....
I watch these highlights every now and then and they make me incredibly emotional. A true legend.
Would like to share a story about this amazing human. I live in Bangalore, and I was at a hair salon waiting for a friend when all of a sudden Rahul Dravid enters. I was told that he lived closeby and would get his haircut there but wasn’t expecting him to be there at the same time!! I couldn’t believe it to be honest.
The receptionist asked him to wait, since there was no one free to attend to him. He asked her how much time he would have to wait and proceeded to sit quietly for atleast 30-40 mins reading stuff on his phone. He didn’t show impatience or feel disappointed or anything.
I really wanted to get a picture with him but I stopped myself from bothering him. My icon was there to get a haircut, I didn’t want him to feel hounded even at a hair salon.
Really miss The Wall coming into bat. Lucky to have lived in the same era as him.
That was a nice thing you did.
He is a gentleman and you also my respect for you i cannot control my self..there🙌💖
Such an amazing and warm gesture to not bother him. Truly outstanding.
Go and eat sheet
Bengaluru is a city for those who know kannada and speak kannada not for people like you u northie indian
He is still my favourite cricketer and will remain same. What an era to watch Sachin ,Rahul , VVS , Saurav , Sehwag to bat.
The batsmen made runs outside of India truly deserve the more respect.
Rahul Dravid is much better bastman and couch than Ravi sashtri........who agree with me
...
Everyone will agree with this
@@kaushikyadav1743 👍👍👍👍👍

Rahul Dravid was a Classic Player in my childhood times
Respect From Pakistan
Salman Khan before the advent of social media we all love other players irrespective of our country except when they are up against our country
Tell me one shot which rahul sir did not play in this innings. Square cuts, on drives, square drives, cover drives, back foot punches, straight drives, pull shot, flicks. He played all these shots with so much elegance and perfection and with pure timing. This is Rahul Dravid for you. Legend !!!!!
Shivam Sharma slog
Why to slog when one can technically correct textbook cricketing shots with so much elegance
Upper cut
Scope
sweep
In terms of techniques and class i think no one is nearer to Dravid...his shots are absolute treat to eyes 🔥🔥
Lara and dravid. They are the only players who knows how to play test match, it requires stamina and different batting style. Huge respect from pakistan
Yes brother we as indians we also love your bowling side
Waqar Younis,shoaib, akthar and wasim Akram were my idols when I used to bowl cricket for school here in Bangalore,they're still my favourite and the most lethal bowling attack alongside McGrath,Lee and warne
Sorry to say, but lara’s innings cost WI the game.
You have to put Kallis and Sangakkara on that list brother .
Thank you bhaijan...from india
This days batsman struggling to score 50 in English conditions. Dravid is class
This is a batting pitch going by the scoreboard. Also, Dravid is pure genius nothing will change that.
Well, pitch is perfect for batting, English bowlers weren't of today's quality (i.e no broad, Anderson and woakes). You gotta look at all the aspects buddy
@@ganeshadhilesh3592 It wouldn't have mattered which bowler was infront of Dravid when he's in such a form. If you would have carefully watched the video, the ball was swinging like anything and yet Dravid was countering it and scoring runs. He had already hit two consecutive hundreds in the same series before this double hundred. He saved the series for India alone handed. If you say this pitch was good for batting, then broad and Anderson would have suffered the same fate and if you look at Dravid's performance in previous test matches, he scored hundreds on bowling pitches. So, you can try to undermine Dravid's performance by saying that bowlers were not the best class but you forget Hoggar, Harmison Flintoff were legends for England too.
@@ganeshadhilesh3592 And there's no looking at the aspects of anything. When you play a match you play against the team you have against you. It's not Dravid's fault that Anderson and broad weren't playing for them at that time. If you go by the aspects then their could be a bowler who never played for India but if he would have played, he would have gotten 1200 wickets in test matches alone. So you can stop trying to undermine a player's performance if you aren't even half the player that guy is.
@@rohitkhairwar7841 look mate, I'm not undermining Dravid's class and his skills, ik that he's great and had played great innings on difficult tracks. Don't get me wrong. I was replying to the main comment saying that these days, batsmen aren't able to score 50 while he had faced 450 balls. And that particular wicket was a slow, flat wicket (looking by the highlights) and absolutely no swing or bounce at all. So, any good batsman can score on that track, provided he doesn't throw his wicket away, and that's exactly what happened. Hoggard, harmison and flintoff were legends for England because they had won them the ashes 2005. Today's English attack is miles better statistically and technically than the one that played in this particular match.
Yaar kitne piyaare or talented hain rahul dravid MashaAllah, love from pakistan
Rahul was so furious after runout but quickly & yet smiled in the end. Rahul could have simply stayed at his end, but went for a spirited hard run. well played Rahul!!!
i dont know why but even if dravid made runs with 40 strike rate i loved his batting.while in current i dont find any of the batsman as interesting as him,even he make run with 200 strike rate
I also because dravid is class apart
@@FactsCountdown agree bro.
Because in test cricket, low strike rate even for mere 50 odd runs means that you have tired down your opponent instead of tiring down yourself. Remember that opener from Delhi something Chopra before Gauti's rise, he was a permanent member of our team, solely because he used to held up one end. The way our team or in fact most of the teams are playing it's just gambling instead of sensible cricket. That's the same reason there are so few tests results in draws these days. I wonder if the new generation will even have the capabilities of appreciating the Good Old Days of Cricket
actually i commented becuase Dravid's every shot has beauty which is missing now a days from 90% Batsman.
BTW opener name Akash Chopra.
It might be because Cricket has evolved a bit. You don't have to be technically sound batsmen to be successful even in test cricket anymore. For Ex. Steve Smith has an unusual stance and technique but still he is successful. Point is in order to compete in more demanding formats of cricket, in order to fulfill the hunger for entertainment, cricket is losing it's technical beauty. Again some might say it's evolving but per me few things need not to changed.
9:41 Opposition captain patting your back, Thunderous applause from the crowd... Appreciation from the commentators...
This gentleman was loved by all ❤️
This man is very special. Because he has played the most number of ball and spend most amount of time in test match more than anyone else. That's a record which no one can beat. #thewall
Even at 217, he gave away his wicket because he saw the striker half way through. Pure gentleman. Always played for the team !! :)
Best middle order player in the world we can say the wall 🚶 🇮🇳🇮🇳
Bhai #Dravid is not middle order batsman , he is a top order batsman ( one down )
@@saitejakumar6160 exactly
Top order
Sai teja kumar so you never saw when dravid played down the order to balance the batting lineup?
Right bro..
Tears rolling my eyes,
I love you Rahul Dravid..
Best test player
How can anyone be so good that the only way to get him out was run out.
Wow, hands down #thewallforever
Rahul Dravid!
Is by far the best Batsmen I've ever seen in the last 16 years of me watching Cricket. Technique , Temperament , Determination , Skill and hard work are facets of this great man. Anyone can make runs when it is easy however Dravid in overseas test was by far superior to his colleagues. Winning 4 Man of the Series awards and 8 Man of the Match awards in overseas tests is outstanding. Dravid also had different gears he could play, He could be the one to score 91 not out off 114 balls in SCG test 2004 - I was there as a kid or he could make a 100 by being solid in testing conditions. Its actually sad to see some people say he is underrated because ask anyone who understands cricket properly they would tell you who Dravid was. Only those who do not know the essence of cricket could underrate him and not those who truly knew cricket. It was a privilege to be a kid living in Australia and cheering on Rahul Dravid during his peak in 2002-2006 and just to say hey I'm still as good as I was in 2011 VS England. I do not see there being another Dravid or even close.

HERE ARE A FEW QUOTES ON dRAVID SIR
th-cam.com/video/P_dOwcQHGsk/w-d-xo.html
@SATWIK Tiwari Sadly .....he is underrated ....😥😥😥......how many will pick him in all time 11 ??
The reason behind the strong wall is all the small bricks that he used to build it!! In an interview Dravid said, I did not play that much of a square cut and I was very weak at it. What he did just gave me Goosebumps, he played only square cut for the next three days by getting throwdowns from his coach. Now if you see his square cut , it is one of the classiest!! He did not become a wall all of a sudden, he eventually built it with this strong determination and dedication.
Dravid was much less compare to lara tendulker
@@prakashjha5733 so you are saying Tendulkar is much better than Dravid?? 😂😂 Doesn't it sound funny!! Can you tell me why was it necessary for Tendulkar to play for his 100 hundreds in international cricket at the age of 42?? Was it for the team?? And one more thing how many innings was saved by Tendulkar compared to Dravid? And don't compare Lara with Dravid, both are two different class players. And Dravid is the classiest of them all!!
He respected his partner's call & ran even after knowing of the (dire) consequence. Pretty much sums up the man about whom Harsha Bhogle had said, 'the wolf who lives for the pack'. Indian cricket has been fortunate to have a player of his aptitude & (more importantly) attitude.
Today, he is tirelessly working to contribute even more to Indian Cricket. His biography should be part of school text books, not just as a sportsperson, but a famous India, who has always been doing his country proud, on & off the field.
Thank you for uploading this fine innings of his.
One of the finest innings by great Rahul Dravid. No words of praise can ever be enough for him. He was the epitome of consistency for 17 years and kept producing these magnificent performances for India. It is unlikely that the world of cricket will ever see another batsman of his class and quality again. Take a bow sir!
Best batsman ever in the history of cricket. Was overshadowed by Sachin but Dravid faced the most difficult spells in alien conditions and scored at the same average.
Nope. Apart from this series and 2011 all his other England tours were mediocre at best whereas sachin averaged above 50 in all his England tours.
@@higherpower254 Dravid has the average of more than 68 in England while Sachin averages 54 in the same Country. Both were exceptional. Tendulkar had great records in every country, in most places he averages more than 50 (except SA) while Dravid was close to 40 in Aus-SA. But overall if we observe, outside Asia Dravid averaged 54 and Tendulkar a little over 50
Lara also best
Varun Both r great but great among greats vl perform evrywhere.....not just two three countries.....; In that respect Sachin is much bttr.......whch shows his unmatched skills ... knowledge nd adjustment abilities in any kind of situation nd pitches
@@yashtiwari117 sachin ka sena me avg 51 hai zim aur wi me 90 me khele the tab tough thi dravid ne 20 me kheli hai
Well when dravid was in his prime i was a small boy who loved watching cricket. I was fond of Britannia cookies so whenever i watched the wall bat i made him my idol because i liked his bat more than his technique. I was called dravid of my locality as i had written his name on my bat. But now after many years i realized that that Britannia bat was actually built of ambuja cement
Tootega kaise
Lot's of love to the legend
SHEELA MAURYA 😂 That's creative.
Ya exactly 👍
Britannia part of Dravid . Sweet memories
😂😂😂
After listening ur comment i recalled when i was a kid i used to ask my father please bring that mrf bat that bat which Sachin used to hit caddick for a six at 2003 wc i love and miss these legends
I don't watch cricket matches anymore, but I do re-watch all the great linings of my childhood idol Rahul Dravid.
Pls
He faced 468 balls 😨 that's brutal, I can't even stand up for 20 minutes straight!! 😆.
Some humans thinking it is easy job... but only cricketer know that how much hard it is.. absolutely dravid is legend.
And they call KL Rahul as the next Rahul Dravid. He can't even play for 10-15 overs straight and this legend played 78 overs. Entire Indian team gets out before 50 overs now.
@@karthikburli3052 seems like you know kl rahul as a test batsman from 2018 as he was famous in IPL that year,,, you haven't seen his 2013 , 14,15 , 16 domestic and international performance he actually was and supposed to be next rahul dravid,,, but unfortunately coach like of sanjay banger and Sehwag(2018 IPL coach) changed his technique now he doesn't perform in test after 2018 he even failed in flat pitch too,,,, I hope he performs well in white ball cricket,,, kl as a top order batsman won't be able to perform in test now
@@shubham40901 Rahul Dravid was a consistent cricketer in all formats. But the problems was he was in the team which had no good bowlers. It is crime comparing KL to Rahul Dravid. Watch dravids 2002 natwest 217 he played 468 deliveries.
78 overs 😨😨😨
China has longest wall
India has strongest wall😍😍
@CricStar 😊
Both wall works folks . no mexican entered - Trump
Agree or not, but he is the most complete batsman ever played this game. The most stylist, most graceful. Full with technique and patience ❤❤❤
Rahul Dravid is legend.
Can watch this innings & the entire series 1000 times or even more to see Rahul Dravid's batting & awesome range of shots... What a player.. Incredible..
The only one to give any real Resistance in the 2011 series, where everyone else just... Died at the other end. A man to be respected
Right bro
exactly 🖒
U got respect of a billion people mate 💖
Dravid actually could have easily saved himself from run out but he knew that he sprinted a little that kept non striker going on. Can not expect this from today's batsmen.
So true
Rahul dravid is a genius he love and play for his country
Only Rahul Dravid can do this.......
Pure Elegance.....pure timing....no edges.... strong defense.... strong at the middle of the bat....defines this greatest ever test batsman for India..... present team even Kohli doesn't have that class
Ankit Donadkar becoz pitches in that series wasn't tough to found edges barring headingly morning session... And also bowlers weren't that great either, Dravid's best series was in 2011
Karthik B S Agreed to some extent. Bowlers were not that good. The pitch where Sachin hit the 193 or something was absolutely flat. But this pitch look good for seam bowling and spin bowling. Usually Dravid hits the bed balls to the boundary. But I can still see little bit of movement in the air in this video.
The pitch at Leeds was green turf. I remember Alan Wilkins commenting he couldn't believe how Dravid & Bangar survived the overcast conditions and pitch.
Had kohli been there in that era then we would have seen whether he actually great !!!!
@@RahulRahul-xm5pv He is great.period.
Rahul dravid is the one resposible for teaching 90s kids the word patience🤣🤣....in the highlights we see fours and sixes the very next ball but in those days 20-30 runs used to come after hours of watching🤣🤣 frustration slowly became patience in my life😍😍😍 thank you sir dravid

@@SNJ-hw6up the class is seriously lost
The time when Indian batsman used to beat spinners like hell 😂now days more than half of the team get out while playing spin .
Irony
True. The art of spin bowling is dying in India. India no longer produces great spinners. And since there are no great spinners, the Indian batsmen do not receive sufficient training in domestic cricket to play quality spin bowling.
@@vishalanandsingh I'd actually say that the opposite is true. The team plays spin well, but the ability to play swing is lacking I feel like. Hurt them in the world cup, and appears like it will hurt them unless they can work on that aspect.

Even in 2006 😁
yes...He reached his crescendo with that unbelievable 81 and 68 in in Jamaica in 2006....the next 6 years did not live up to his own high standards!
This man was phenomenal till his last match
@@divinedelusions6604 he was still magnificent, I remember the 2011 England tour where he scored 3 hundreds meanwhile the Indian team couldn't even cross 300 in any inning.
@@shekharpradhan5576yes in 2011 he performed well in West Indies, England and West Indies home series. He failed only in Australia
"Other's succeed because they're destined to, Dravid succeeded because he's determined to" - Navjot Sidhu
Probably the batsman with best technique!!
Just see the respect from crowd and opponent team players ..
That is Rahul Dravid ..
Big fan u sir .. kannadiga Rahul Dravid..🙏
No. He is not from Karnataka. He was born in Indore, Madhya Pradesh. But his family was settled in Bangalore, Karnataka. He is from the Marathi family. But he will speak kannada too. I am from Mysore, Karnataka.
He is most technically sound batsman everywhere especially in overseas conditions and best student of cricket that's make him gr8.true gentlemen my favorite cricket player Rahul Dravid.i am his biggest fan.
09:39 Nasser Hussein patting Dravid was a nice gesture.
These are the innings which will always be remembered.. unforgettable... Inspirational..
*Rahul* *Dravid* fans Hit Like 👍👍👍❤️😍
Highlights is the only place where you can find Rahul Dravid hitting almost every next ball for boundary.
Watch dravid's fastest 50
I think dravid test match strike rate is better than many fast strike rate batsman
cricket is not all about hitting boundaries
Dravid had ability to change gear of his batting anytime....
That's why he is a legend.......
WOW, JUST WOW, WOW , WOW ,WOW, just imagine if everyone aspires to be this man , or even one tenth of him, the world will be much better place to live on, thank you ECB.
"Change of pace from gough", "Dravid read it like a book"
Class of a player can't be explained better than this..
Masterclass in commentary box ❤️❤️
That's dominic cork ..the bowler 🙂
Darren Gough played in the 90s.
That is the only way to get the wicket of the wall.....#legend
the best thing about this innings is that only 2 other batsman in the indian innings got past 50. Shows you how he held the batting lineup together himself. Had he got out early we were to lose that match and efficiently the series. Great Batsman
I have always admired English/Aussie fans the way they cheer up good performing individuals irrespective of teams by applauding, I do expect from most of Indian cricket fans to treat the same for good performing opponent players. And I really appreciate this youtube channel for uploading this magnificent innings. Cheers mate!
Such a pleasure to watch Rahul Dravid. Here after he became indian coach. One thing i noticed his technique is better than all current players. love from pakistan
His footwork is what sets him apart... besides, truly a gentleman !!!!!!!!!!
My favourite batsman to watch over the years! (From a Pakistani)
😍😍
Great middle batsman I like him
Wasim Akram is my All time Favourite bowler. No cap

Literally no one:
VVS plays an exquisite cover drive in Rahul Dravid video
He's a special one
You know why because" he is very very special.

Timestamp bro??
Undoubtedly the most stylish batsman.. Of India....even among the world
At 6:13, it was Very Very Special Lakshman played that boundary. He is equally good at class as Rahul Dravid. Even ECB can't miss him
How beautiful his shots are😍😍...My Favorite..Love his technique 🇵🇰💖🇮🇳
One of my favorite batsmen. Gentleman through and through.
Unlike many in the Indian team now.
So truee. I used to have deep respect for the Indian team, when the likes of dravid, tendulkar, laxman, Sehwag used to play. Now i feel disappointed at the current team. Winning matches isn’t everything.
Yeah ofcourse. Pls add aussies and english too in the past Era. Ridiculous arrogant players..
Yes there are lot of chappies now. Empty vessels.
Today returning at the Oval being ICT's head coach. How time flies
Hope India does well.
Legend.. Alone faced 78 overs in English conditions.. Precision in his technique is class apart..
The portions that are missing from this highlights is what makes Dravid special. The hours and hours and hours of patience, tapasvi like concentration, focus, aggression is what is missing now with Pujara, Rahul etc.
Only Rahane can come to 20 % of Dravid. If he can become even 50 % of Dravid, Kohli would have another reliable partner.
Man of honour Rahul Dravid. Extremely fascinating to see an Indian batsman batting at such ease on English grounds!!
I came here after watching indian batting in WTC final, This is how batting should be done.
When he used to play back then I was just a kid. I didn't know the technical aspects of cricket back then and used to think of dravid as boring and very slow batsman. But now watching his innings as an adult, I am a fan of him now. Every time he hits the ball the timing is so perfect that the sound is magical. His placement is excellent. Moreover he has a patience level that no other cricketer probably have or had. Just pure excellence.
thats y i respect and love him even more..he always played for the team..look at when ratra ran for the single he clearly said no and made the gesture by his hand but seeing ratra had already ran and knowing if he ran he might get out yet he ran...any other modern day batsmen wud have simply ran back to his crease and made ratra run out while batting at 217 but not dravid..thats y i purely believe thr can be no other player like dravid ever in world cricket..i bet no one..
உங்களை போல் தற்போது எவரும் இல்லை நமது அணிக்கு
Unmai 👍🏻
I don't understand what you have written but on a Dravid video, I only expect good words :)
@@HedgingBoy he says that in today's cricket, no one is equal to him or they cannot catch his style
No word will b appropriate fr his class and desency....true man ❤️
2001 in kolkata , India vs Australia
Rahul David & VVS Laxman 376 Runs partnership ❤️❤️ Rahul David 180 runs 😍😍👍👍👍
Dravid sir scored a double hundred in Adelaide in 2003-04 series. India won that match, series was draw & India retained the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
Rahul Dravid ...the epitome of determination , grit , class , elegance , poise , grace , technique ,team spirit ..The most selfless batsman ever ...The best test batsman of his era and probably the best test batsman of India ever ...Only Dravid can sacrifice his wicket for a new comer Parthiv Patel at 217 ...Hats off Dravid ... You were , You are and You will remain an inspiration for millions across the globe ...
The only thing which I can watch millions of time without getting bored😍😍
Sir Rahul Dravid for a reason ❤️
That bat sound is pure bliss 😇
All the time I love watching Dravid's batting in the late 90s and early 2000s ❤️
He is beyond comparison
Living legend for a reason 🔥❤️
Love and respect from Bangladesh 🇧🇩❤️
Rahul Dravid master class at the Oval... Test cricket Legend...Wall of india
They edited out the part where Holding says "One man talking with his mouth and the other with his bat" after Cork sledged him following a hook shot
For context to those reading this comment: th-cam.com/video/Ednzh3BZThk/w-d-xo.html
