[@sagaryln]

i still remember the day 4. its morning 9:30 AM, me and my brother were watching the game and we requested mom not to switch off the TV until a wicket falls. My mom thought India is on the verge of collapse and said ohk i will switch off the TV if the 5th wicket falls. Dravid and lakshman batted the whole day 😂😂and the TV is on till 5 PM. had one of the good childhood day.

As a late 90's kid this Australian team actually gave me chills. Imagine how damn dominant a team can be, even a random supporter can feel the tremendous aura this Australian Team gave off. Then Came this EPIC test match. I still remember cheering with my father, class 1 kid cheering for Test match who has 0 idea of Follow On. Boy this match, Dravid and Laxman, shining like Damn Sun.

[@siddarthbalakrishnan9657]

Ik that this Australian team was truly incredible but it wasn't like they dominated India in their previous tour of the country either. India bullied Australia in 97-98 winning the test series with the same scoreline 2-1 but only lost the 3rd test. They won the only test in 96-97 as well. Australia never had a great record in India hence it was known as final frontier for them. Of course this Australian team was almost certainly superior to the 97-98 team but keep in mind that the 97-98 team was also considered the best in the world at the time and had at that point already won everywhere in the world except India

all time favorite and great test match नयी शताब्दी के शुरुआत में ही ये महान टेस्ट मैच खेला गया जब तक क्रिकेट खेला जाता रहेगा तब तक ये मैच याद आएगा लक्षमण द्रविड़ और हरभजन सिंह ने ये टेस्ट मैच अमर बना दिया

I always feel that SS Das was wrongly dropped when he was dropped. He was quite a good opener - could be solid in defence, aggressive when required and was an excellent close-in fielder to boot.

[@arkapravasarkar_dft_md]

I agree

[@Gauravkoolwal]

same happened with Akash chopra

[@sahilsharma8936]

Replacement was better Virender Sehwag

[@arifmohamed5908]

Yeah . Good opening batsmen but had bad luck.In 2002 tour of new Zealand he played really well scored 200 in practice game and top scored on a green pitch but was dropped next game.If he was playing all the matches in that tour he would have been a great batsmen.

47.53 Rahul Dravid is such a wonderful player with such positive attitude ...ready to take any challenge for the sake of his captain and his team...one only admire & respect this Gentleman's way of playing cricket.

18:42 Maninder Singh spoke about VVS when India was almost down and out. Great insight.
