So there is no reason for Dravid fans (most of them also Sachin bashers) to say that Dravid is India’s savior and such. He has not done much meaningful this season and he continues to flop.

But that is not to say that the other top and middle order bats were good. They were all miserable, and/or Bond was too good. I have started not liking the much cliched “The name is Bond, Shane Bond”.

I did not see the match, so I don’t know how the wickets fell and who was responsible. But all I can see is that the Indian innings was at 44-8 at some point and that is not pleasant at all.

This team has reached new lows now and someone has to give that shot of enthusiasm and positivity from somewhere. Desperately.
