I am a huge fan of Rahul Dravid and yesterday Rahul Dravid The wall of Indian Cricket retired from one day internationals. In his last one day international against might England at Cardiff. In his last match he scored 69 runs to build the Indian innings to a challenging score of 304. He belongs to that cricket generation, where the motto was ''I am not giving you my wicket, if you want, then you have to go over my body''. In initial stage of his one day cricket he was dropped by saying that his style of cricket is inappropriate for one day cricket, but he worked hard and made a strong comeback proving his critics wrong, and then went on to become one of the legendary cricketers of one day game by scoring more than ten thousand runs. He made his ODI debut against Srilanka on April 3rd in Singapore. India won that match by 12 runs
