SOME OF THE GREAT COMMENTS FOR RAHUL DRAVID ON INTERNET.........................
As is usual in India, they could name a street after Rahul Dravid. But then, the Americans have already done it. Wall Street.
Now onwards Indian cricket will be called as Cricket-AD (After Dravid).
Facebook knew that 'The Wall' (Rahul Dravid) is going to retire, that's why they replaced it with Timeline.
BCCI anno...unces that India would play only 3-day test matches after Rahul Dravid's retirement.
"Kwality Walls" to change their name to "Kwality Dravid"
TheWall was a firewall for the pacer and spinner
The one WALLpaper our Indian cricket team would never wish to change forever
Humpty=Ganguly, Dumpty=Sachin. Wall = Rahul Dravid.
Dravid was like an LIC policy, always handy at the time of crises.
The wall doesn't fall they become monuments
"Rahul Dravid is a player who would walk on broken glass if his team asks him to"- Navjot Singh
No Facebook, we aren't talking about your wall when we say The Wall
"Ask him to walk on water for his team and he will ask you how many miles" - Harsha bhogle
Dear Rahul Dravid how are we ever going to repay you for what you have given us?
There can be no other cricketer like Dravid, No tribute can be enough for Rahul Dravid, There was and is only one Rahul Dravid: Sachin Tendulkar....................
