the likes of Mark Taylor and MS Dhoni are among those who have been conferred such degrees. Rahul Dravid could have joined the list on Monday, but he declined the honorary degree being conferred on him by Bangalore University. It's not the first time Dravid has shied away from a doctorate: in 2014, Gulbarga University decided to give him one, but Dravid did not attend the convocation ceremony.

eedu special.

I didn't care much about him while he was playing, but post retirement, he seems the only one with a head on his shoulders.

Sachin is a disappointment, by choosing never to open his mouth.

Sehwag comes across as a nationalist nut.

Ganguly still playing politics 

Dravid is a class apart from all of these guys. I feel bad that I abused him while he was playing.

That was your fault. If anything Indian team owes a lot of it's success in the tests as well as the ODIs when he kept wickets to Dravid. 

Sehwag thought he was being funny when he picked that argument with Piers Morgan, if anything he came out of it looking like an ass. Sachin is a bigger political opportunist than even Ganguly.

For a successful sportsperson from India, this guy is remarkably level headed. We need more such guys to improve the overall standard of our popular discourse.

SRT has been the biggest disappointment. He turned out to be an establishment suckup. First UPA, now NDA. Kohli has already started his training for sucking up to the ruling party by praising Modi/demonetization.

Kumble is a BJP member.

doesn't mean he's a bigot. But even Kumble seems to be saying things that people want to hear. This guy is something else.

yeah, without being too picky, Kumble, Srinath will also qualify as awesome.

[VizagRocks]

I abused Kumble also, even more vigorously than I abused Dravid.

Srinath, though, was a huge favourite.

Dravid kumble srinath prasad all.

 

of course Dravid is way different than others in the above list.

Sri nath was my favorite.

Let a million dravids bloom in India.

especially in dalit and muslim households, and rise to the top.

I like Zaheer Khan too. He seems to be top class gentleman.

Inspite of all this, I love Sachin.

Unless he's exposed as a serial baby killer sometime in the future, I'll always love him.
