Rahul dravid is my all-time favourite batsman
He was so good to watch. Just impeccable timing and played with such style and grace.
Raul Dravid and Inzamam, both are legend batsmen. Specialist run chasers.
I agree Farhan. Both were exceptional players and are rightfully legends in their respective countries and all over the world too.
Inzy showing love to an Indian batsman must be irritating as hell to the haters in India and Pakistan. I always find it ironic that the players in both countries respect their counterparts but so many of the fans sow nothing but hatred.
