Clear indications are there that in all probabilities, India's batting stalwart Rahul Dravid will retire from Test Cricket tomorrow. The second highest run-getter in the longer format till now, Dravid is likely to bring down curtains on his illustrious career of over two decades.
Though there isn't yet an official confirmation of the news but the BCCI on Thursday sent a media release about Dravid holding a joint press conference along with president N Srinivasan at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium on Friday afternoon. This is quite indicative that Dravid may announce his decision, which is he has been withholding for sometime now. There has been intense speculation about Dravid's impending retirement ever since he failed with the bat during the Australian tour.
It may be recalled that Dravid had a disastrous tour of Australia where he scored only 194 runs in eight innings at an average of 24.25. Even more disappointing was that Dravid popularly known as "The Wall" was bowled in six out of the eight innings as the Australian pacer Ben Hilfenhaus repeatedly breaching his defence with ease.
