Rahul Dravid has been kept out of the Pakistan series and the reason given for this is 'he is out of form'. i personaly feel that he is not out of form. He got a man of the match in the England series. Even in the Aussies series, he played 3 of his 5matches in the slog overs and u cannot expect a batsmen to score more runs or ask him to stay till end. With just 2 matches, one cannot be said to be in out of form and drop him from the team.

Absolutely, we miss him a lot these days. He would definitely have been a good solid middle order batsman who can give some stability in the middle order and middle overs of the match. It is really a pathetic error by selectors to omit him and what is even more pathetic and funny is that selecting Sehwag in place of Dravid.

my friend you are absolutely correct,a world class batsman of his class should not be treated like this.. while others are playing against pakistan ,he is plying in Ranji !! horrifying...

yes i too thing the same..
he is great batsmen..
he has alwayz performed well under pressure for the team..
he has done everything for the team..form batting to whichever postion required to being the wicketkeeper for the sake of playing an extra batsmen.,..
well Now he has just not played well in merely 3 one dayz...he is thrown out of the team.,...well this good done with dravid..
he demand respect and he should be given

hey what i personaaly feel that the bigger issue than his being out of form, or the reason behind his bein out of form is that indian team or the captain is still not able to decide his position in the team.
that where he should be sent to bat
now the excuse gets that he is out of form or may be he is but fiorst you correct your self than you can tell others their mistake
and he has really made india to win in the harsh conditions
he was a great captain, a great batsman
i think he should be brought back
