DROPPED r RESTED aren't the same ???

I guess few names that would've popped out of your mind when i say these few words "Dropped or Rested" . Ofcourse Mr. Ganguly and now, heat has turn towards Dravid... Now a few days after the shameful defeat at home by aussies (4-2) which would've been (5-1) had rain not interrupted the 1st ODI . Only one series Dravid was struggling out there in the middle and now he is being rested for the first 2 ODIs against PAK. It seems like history happening again. Ganguly was rested for first 2 ODIs against Sri Lanka a year and half ago and now this year 2007 ganguly striked back. I really have no clue on what grounds Dravid is being rested .. Its the euphemism that is used in India . . Dinesh karthik is dropped but Dravid is rested ... very polished way of showing the way out.

It was only few months back , he made a stunning display of his game with the willow and made the fielders patrolling the rope and in the end India won England at bristol by 9 runs .Dravid made 92 off just 63 balls with 12 4s and 1 six.. Its not even 6-7 matches he is being dropped for his non-deliverance. Didn't we know Ganguly 's willow couldn't sustain in the field for a 30 mins for a year. Didn't we give him a fair chance...Don't dravid deserve a chance ....A man who sailed to South Africa and England and won accolades for winning the series out there is now being sent out of the ship just because he caught up in the fog.


Sanjay Manjrekar said in an interview that Dravid is a selfless player.. Can't you see how true it is. He made his most runs at 3rd position and as to groom the team, he gave room for young players at the top order and finally came to the field at 5th or 6th position. How can a player be so consistent if gets in at 5th or 6th position. Well you don't have the liberty to swing the willow at this position as we have at the top order. Ain't he the one who stood and kept watching his team mates shotted by Srilankans in the worldcup. Being selfless , he lost his position in the team . How many of them would come up with the decision that I'm having a bad patch in my form so i'm not the right one to captain the team . Neither would you and nor me be so broadminded to be frank..Well that decision would've given Dada some guilt .. hehe....

Only two things i think i would like to say to vengsarkar.... guess what ???

1. "FUCK YOU !!!!!!!!!"
2. "YOUR SELECTION SUCKS BIGTIME !!!!!!"
