Wall axed by the axe effect again

Dravid in news again for a wrong reason - scores in the recent past a 39, a 40 and a 76 and what followed was an axe - one more axe in the wall.

Nevermind, he's is a person of character, for he'll find solace in being simple and more importantly professional in dealing with what I call a biased set of selectors as he's always kept doing throughout his career. Dravid could have easily surpassed and be well ahead of Tendulkar in ODI overall score, had he been retained in the side for a long time, he was axed so many times that today he feels such criticism is a part of his life. The debates continue to happen - Dravid's supporters v/s Tendulkar's supporters, this too shall not stop. The gamut of Tendulkar supporters after reading my blog till this juncture would certainly feel agitated though.

"Class has been compromised yet again for poultry cricketers who neither are consistent nor have the class anywhere near", thanks to Lalit Modi - the Marwari who could help the selection committee find such talents through his so called brainchild - the IPL. Literally, Lalit Modi - a Marwari businessman with business in blood and bloodstream could mint money, hoarding from the franchisees.

I couldn't find a reason why Ravindra Jadeja was picked by dropping Abhishek Nayar and the latter wasn't given enough chances to prove himself and the former despite giving poor show was called up. Irfan who was lot better allrounder when compared to Yusuf and Jadeja was overlooked upon such blindly. Honestly this is the time I feel Dravid should retire from all the forms of cricket, for his absence shall leave a lacuna that could never be filled by any and rather get into commentary alike Javagal Srinath.
