#2 Rahul Dravid would not have gotten a chance to lead India
‘The Wall’, as he was popularly known, would not have the chance to lead the country had Chappell not played his part in axing Ganguly. The burden of captaincy fell on the shoulders of Dravid but he could not quite replicate the success his predecessor had achieved.
His first real test came in the 2007 World Cup and the dependable right-hander faltered miserably. His body language, the fielding he set were heavily criticised after India crashed out of the event.
Chappell resigned from his post soon after the event concluded and after leading India in its tour to England later in the year, Dravid also resigned from his post as Team India captain.
