The Wall stands tall again
Much to the delight of his fans, Rahul Dravid unleashed his textbook shots once again and showed that he is still and always be a player with the best batting technique of his generation. Rising to the situation, with India 59-2 in the Perth Test, Rahul Dravid along with the Little Master stuck to the pitch to show the cricketing world that ‘The Wall’ has not crumbled and that the Wall has the strength to stand tall and protect India. The duo put on more than a 100 runs in the post lunch session.
But much to the disappointment of the Indian fans, the rest of the team could not live up to the expectations raised by their seniors and the Indian wickets kept falling. Dravid missed out on a century and was caught by the Aussie captain at 93 of the bowling of Symonds. And Inspite of a fighting knock by their ex-captain, India ended the day 1 with a disappointing 297/6.
