One of the greatest players to ever grace the game is Rahul Dravid. This is due to a variety of factors, including his odd batting abilities as well as his demeanor and regard for both other competitors and sports in general. Despite having a long list of impressive accomplishments, he is also regarded as one of the most honorable players.
The 2008 Sydney Test against Australia included the renowned Indian cricketer Rahul Dravid. David displayed his exceptional defensive prowess by successfully blocking everything that was thrown his way. He scored 18 runs during the game, but he also had a stretch of dot balls during which he was held scoreless.
Despite this, everyone in the crowd was engrossed and enthusiastically applauded each dot ball. They cheered every time Dravid abandoned the ball because they valued his strategic judgment.
“Mad_Over_Sports,” an Instagram user, posted the video and referred to Dravid as “The Wall of the Indian Cricket Team.” Check out the post below
After facing 40 dot deliveries, Dravid finally took a single to the delight of the crowd, and everyone stood up to applaud his tenacity. Dravid gently raised his bat in response to the applause from the crowd. Internet users flocked to the comments section to laud Dravid.
Another commenter compared Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly, and VVS Laxman to god. He said, “Even the gods stood behind the impenetrable “Wall” when the temple doors were closed.”
Another commenter lamented the passing of the days when cricket was watched, hinting that the game has changed considerably since then.
Many commentators commended Dravid’s technique and patience, calling his front foot defense against pace a major source of pleasure.
