Come on Dravid, you got to be kidding!

All hardcore team India cricket fans must have read Dravid's talk on the eve of the first test in South Africa series. Dravid's speech can be written programmatically as follows:

/* Question variables:
* Topic: can be anything like fielding, bowling, strategy
* state: Boolean - Good/Bad
*/
Dravid_Response(Topic, state)
{
array lots_of_boys; // stores all the boys and related words in the universe
array indian_record_stats; // some crap record relating to ground, team, series
array feelings; // stores all the big feelings like motivation, inspiration, dedication

response = random_entry each_from lots_of_boys + record_stats + feelings;
return response + random_sentence_completion_words; // like keenly, focus...
}

One must really praise the reporters to make an article out it. More especially when he tries to make it sound intimidating to the opponent team. Now that Ganguly is in the same hotel wing, Dravid should take evening lessons from him on "arrogance: a must for a captain". Hopefully India performs better. Being a spiritual country, we fans know that the real secret for India's win lies in the strength of our prayers than the selected team. Let us all begin our prayers! Amen [thathasthu].

A quote from Hindu today
"Rahul Dravid was a skipper in control. He walked up to the bowlers from mid on and mid off, offering them words of guidance and encouragement."

methinks What a joke

ys, THE Hindu newspaper seems to be in some other world

"Dravid is tough mentally, is technically accomplished, and leads by example." (OK agreed) His strategic brilliance, this could be seen in his field placements, and motivational skills came to the fore in the first Test."

Dont mind the Hindu. Dravid's qualities are interpretations in retrospection. I can give my own color to it too. The team clicked and Chappell's coaching too!
