My Theory on Dravid's actions
Without the BIG THREE of Indian cricket the team has become world champions in Twenty Twenty which was one of the most competitive tournament that I have ever witnessed.
But there could also be a method to the actions taken by Dravid in first convincing the other BIG TWO to shun this tournament, and later, in resigning from captaincy.
Had he resigned from captaincy without convincing the other BIG TWO to shun Twenty Twenty cup the BCCI might have made one of them the captain which would indeed have been a step back.
Also, by resigning from captaincy after the new Twenty Twenty captain was announced and had left for the tour it was ensured that Mahi would definitely be offered the One-Day Captaincy and no one else. The BCCI could not have gone any other way on this.
So now in hindsight it looks like the perfect steps were taken to ensure the next level was passed on the baton and that 'experience' was not called up again for captaincy for a 2nd or 3rd time.
Now did this happen by chance, or did Dravid make this happen deliberately, trying to ensure the good and progressiveness of Indian cricket?
