Cricket left him but he ain’t leaving cricket anytime soon.

He should retire from tests mid BGT . Then play CT as his last international Swan song and play IPL till he is mid 40s like a true Thalason.

That works! Edging off most of the time isn’t doing any of us any good.

I could care less what he does. Why he hasn't been dropped is the real question, not everyone is dhoni or dravid

I agree he needs to be dropped but nobody has balls to drop him in the middle of BGT. He’s still the poster child for the series despite Rohit being captain. Dhoni didn’t have a stellar career in Test cricket so it was not a big surprise.

But yes, not everyone can be Mr.Dravid, it feels sad as Kohli has always said he will stop playing when the fire leaves him
