ODI Retirement? Dravid will play last match today in Cardiff

Rahul Dravid'The Wall'of indian cricket taking retirement today from One Day International Cricket (ODI) in last match ongoing series against england in Cardiff. As you know many things have happened to Rahul Dravid on this England tour. He made his maiden century at Lord's, fulfilling a desire that was born the day he made 95 on Test debut at the ground 15 years ago.,
He opened for the entire Test series barring the first innings of the first Test, and ended up with the Player of the Series trophy on the visitors'side. He walked in the second innings of the third Test at Edgbaston believing the umpire's word for a caught-behind when replays conclusively showed the ball had kissed an aglet on his left shoe-lace. He was shocked to hear the news that the he was part of the Indian one-day squad as reinforcement after injuries had ruled many of the frontline players. He played his first and last Twenty20 international where he hit three consecutive sixes, the most by an Indian in the match. Tomorrow Dravid will not only pull curtains on a"bittersweet"tour but also on for more details....
