 Rahul Dravid retires from international cricket"The Wall" holds the world record of 210 Test catchesRahul Dravid 30th in all-time Test best list March 09, 2012 After 16 years of steadfast service, Rahul Dravid, the former Indian captain, has announced his retirement from international and domestic first-class cricket at a press conference in Bangalore. The Karnataka batsman is 30th in all-time Test best list, having spent a total of 35 Tests and 226 days at the top, with the highest-rating of 892 which he achieved in March 2005, an ICC release stated. Among India batsmen, only Sunil Gavaskar (916) and Sachin Tendulkar (898) have achieved higher career ratings than Dravid. He was also the first recipient of the ICC Test Player of the Year and the ICC Cricketer of the Year (the Sir Garfield Sobers Trophy) awards, presented in 2004 in London. The 39-year-old Rahul Dravid, nicknamed "The Wall" for his patient batting style, has scored 13,288 runs in 164 Tests since making his debut as a 23-year-old at Lord's in 1996, second only to compatriot and master batsman Sachin Tendulkar (15,470), and has made 36 centuries at an average of over 50. He has amassed a world record 19 century partnerships with Tendulkar and has been involved in 80 century partnerships with 18 different partners. In 344 one-day internationals, Dravid scored 10,899 runs, and was top scorer in the 1999 World Cup in England with 461. He captained India in 25 Tests and 79 ODIs between October 2005 and September 2007, during which time India won Test series in England and West Indies. Dravid will lead the Rajasthan Royals in this year's Indian Premier League 2012 which runs from 4 April to 27 May.  I don't think a player like Rahul Dravid can come into the Indian cricket team (again).  - Virender Sehwag.
There can be one and only one Rahul Dravid. - Sachin Tendulkar.
He is the only cricketer after Bradman to do so well abroad. He is a champion. - Kapil Dev.
He is one of the greatest batsman in world cricket. - Saurav Ganguly.
He's probably the nicest guy - no, he is the nicest guy - that I've met in cricket. - Stand-in Australian captain Shane Watson.
