He needs help... and somebody in the team which most specifically means Kumble needs to help him out during this phase.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Am sure you will also agree that India did not play their normal everyday brand of cricket... it was poor... that is not something which consistently happens either to the extend of what happened today. Dravid has being the most integral part of any Indian test win apart from Kumble... and his problems are India's biggest problems. Being pessimistic is not solving anything nor is it anything new... It was expected that India lose! So what are you adding? How different are you all from the main stream media which just goes by popular perception?
