ponting is a part of the no' 1 side for last 7 yrs,where everyone is consistently performing& this gives the proper support to ponting.All the more aussies hav an xellent coachwho will never allow the players to loose control.
But India has been facing so many problems in cricket,somtimes problem with the captains position or bad form of players,all this disturbs the mindset of player& takes him away from cricket.then too dravid has kept his cool &performed consistently as no one in india does while battiing.
peopele notice players who hav hitting abilities not the one who can slowly take them to a win
ponting is a gr8 player but many other cricketers hav talent like him but no one can play as dravid does coz he does not runs after limelight.THOUGH DRAVID DOES NOT HAS THE TALENT OF HITTING AS PONTING HAS BUT HE HAS DEVELOPED A PATIENCE SKILL BY HIS HARDWORK ,ITS NOT GIFTED TO HIM

to be honest, it is Pointing who plays a greater part in the team selection and in the final eleven...Pointing is making them play their natural game, which Dravid lacks

I fully agree with your comments and I too consider Dravid a better player as compared to Ponting.
As far as captaincy is concerned it will be totally unfair to Dravid to compare him with Ricky Ponting as Ponting has been leading No. 1 team in the world for the past many years, whereas Dravid has taken up captaincy only recently.

Of Course u r absolutely correct as Dravid has been much more experienced than Ponting.Else than the present one , Dravid never had a big streak of single figured runs though ponting has had it more than 7 times

I agree with you that Dravid has done a remarkable job for the country but often has gone unnoticed.I think he should stay as a captain of India even though the team has not been doing well lately.What I like about him is that he always leads from the front unlike Ganguly who was just interested in captaining the side and not in performing well himself.
