As an Aussie, but more importantly a supporter of cricket, I felt it was our honour and our privilege to have Rahul Dravid speak at the Sir Don Bradman Oration. His thoughtfulness and respect for the history and indeed the future of this great game is something the majority of Cricket Boards around the world should take heed of. He encapsulates everything that is right about this game. Good luck in the future Rahul.

What a man. Cricket is such a fabulous sport that it garners folk such as this. I can't imagine a soccer player making this speech. Over-used phrase, I know, but this man is a Legend, a genuine Living legend, as a man and as a player. Long may the gentleman's game continue if characters such as this is the result. Dravid's most beautiful shot? Just look at the balance of his forward defensive. Anyway, warm regards to my Australian and Indian cousins

Rahul Dravid truely is why we call cricket a gentelman's game, he plays it as a gentleman on and off the pitch and how many modern cricketers can we say that for. A genuine ambassador of the great sport of Cricket. He is one cricketer who will always have mutuall repect of fans from every cricket playing nation.

Dravid is an ethics of integrity at an everyday level, an ethics of scale which moves from the training field to the great matches and yet has the adaptability to apply itself diligently to a simple game.

Rahul, the one thing I like about you is your preparedness to a situation. Whether it is batting in a difficult pitch, playing in foreign condition; you are always 100% prepared. You always are ready for every possible obstacles. As they say, "Optimism is not about expecting good things in life, it is expecting the worst and getting ready for it." You were more than prepared for every match you played and you were more than prepared for the amazing speech you delivered. Thank you for being an inspiration to me. :)

As a big fan of Rahul Dravid,As i heard him speake for about half an hour or so.,I only say that his character is reflected in his batting style and in his CLASSIC speech.I used the word classic because that is what defines Dravids batting.I know that many people would have been bored by hearing to such a long speech but that is what Dravid is,its the way he bats and that is the way he speaks...After a very long time i have heard to such a wonderfull speech.Thaks Rahul Dravid
