This is irrelevant. Dravid played the fulcrum role winning India tests in Adelaide and Perth. The rest of his record is an irrelevance. You have to judge players by their contributions to legacy, not by stats. And in this way Dravid has a legacy in Australia, Root doesn't (and for an English player, its disqualiying from the pantheon without a legacy in Australia)

This is called special pleading. Just pick his best two performances and ignore a dozen other tests, including being an absolute fail against McWarne.
Still we can give Dravid an edge in Aus but he is far from a success there.
no - this is how legacies are created. Churchill was an epic failure for much of his life / political career but got the two big things right.

That was quite a big piece of ****. Frankly, just doesn't get enough hate that mother****ing ****** deserves. A ****ing piece of thrash, the mid 1900s equivalent of Leopold.
