The ' Mr.Dependable ' of our Indian Cricket Team, Rahul Dravid, is ranked one of the best ten current Test batsmen in the World. He is the 6th player in history to score 10,000 runs. Beginning his career at age of 12, the turning point in Dravid's career was when he toured to South Africa in 1996-97 where he scored his maiden Test hundred with 148 in the third Test in Johannesburg. In 1999 during the 7th world cup Dravid was the top run scorer. It was under his captaincy that India reached the Finals in the 2003 World Cup. Dravid is the captain and the Icon Player in the Indian Premier League in the Royal Challengers Bangalore team. Like a true Capricorn, Rahul has always been an ambitious individual who has proved his worth on several occasions. Wish one of the best players of our cricket team a very Happy Birthday today!

Only Pankaj Roy and Vinoo Mankad have scored more runs in a partnership for India, 413 vs New Zealand in Chennai (6-11 Jan 1956).
* Dravid is one among the only three batsmen to hit Test centuries in four consecutive innings. The other two are Jack Fingleton and Alan Melville. Dravid achieved this by hitting scores of 115, 148, 217 and 100* in three successive matches against England and one against the West Indies. Only Everton Weekes, with centuries in five consecutive innings, has achieved a longer sequence of consecutive Test hundreds.[38]
