Today, Rahul Dravid celebrates his 48th birthday away from the chaotic cricket world and glare of media. The iconic Indian cricketer was given the title of the “Wall” for his perseverance and determination to toil in the difficult cricketing period against the ferocious bowling attacks. Born on 11 January 1973, Rahul Dravid made his test debut on 20 June 1996 vs England. He scored a memorable 95 while his overall average of 62.33 from two test matches marked his rise in the long format of the game. Over a period of 16 years, Rahul Dravid led India to various victories across the world on the back of his superb technical batting. Not just runs, Dravid was an exception fielder with impressive catch taking abilities in the slip cord.
