"Hitting the ball in cricket is all about immense power
and stamina." This was my thought before seeing Dravid's innings last
night.
Every shot which came from his bat have been carved with
expertise. Right from his trademark front-foot cover drive to the most elegant
hook shot, everything has a perfectionist attitude in it. If you represent his
shots pictorially, each and every shot would have an appropriate angle which
was stated in the rule book. And to be
specific, none of the shots he played yesterday came from edge; that shows his
determinism and the passion for cricket. Marvan Attapattu was well known for
his elegant and proper strokes and now, it’s our WALL and he is still going
strong.
He not only plays steady innings analyzing the situation in
the test match but also has an ability to play a fiery innings that too in
classical form of cricket. So don't call him as a sloppy player in the game of cricket rather he is among the most thinking cricketer in the world of cricket.
Trademark Dravid...
