Its been 14 years he made his debut and with him missing first series due to an injury suddenly we feel that Test cricket is not complete, the slot he comes in at for last 14 years is no more typical Wallesque.
Its an indication of time to come. He is still a vital cog of the team even 3 yrs after giving up captaincy, he is still the man to lift the team out of the trouble.
Though in last 2 years or so, he has started coming late to bat thanks to the awesome Delhi opening pair we have, but his contributions are never less than more celebrated team mates of his.
11400 runs, 29 hundreds and 139 Tests is not enough for Rahul Dravid to stop or miss a series. He is still wanted and would be keenly awaited to make a comeback soon.
Darn that Shahadat Hossein delivery.
