Laxman, Tendulkar, Dravid were quiet humble and reserved. Even among them Dravid is even more humble. Happy Birthday Champ

On the same level as miandad?Clearly an ATG, but his record away in Aus, Sa puts him below top tier people like Lara, Tendulkar, Smith, Chappel, Waugh and many more.
A top 15-20 test bat of all time
On the same level as miandad?

I knew about top 3, top 5, top 10, etc... First time came across a top 11.
Only Laxman was left behind so i placed him at 11. But i forget to add Inzamam. So, Inzi will take 9th spot, Jaya 10th, Yousuf 11th and Laxman 12th.

Younis should be above Miandad too, just under Dravid. Sehwag and Kohli are practically equal as test batsmen.
This. Well said.A low tier ATG. Never really impressed in conditions with bounce but was an incredible player of swing bowling. Putting him ahead of Tendulkar is silly though and overly contrarian. He was better from 2002-2007, but Tendulkar had a 24 year career ***
One of the most impactful batsman in Test cricket but Gavaskar and Tendulkar are top two in this order in my opinion.
The goat obsession deprives a lot of great role players their due respect. Rahul Dravid never had to be as good as Sachin but he still managed that for a few years and that’s incredible.
Test cricket is the pinnacle of this sport and Dravid was an absolute wall of a batsman in this format. One of the greatest ever #3.
In the end, to a cricketer lover, a player would always be remembered for the iconic performances. The man has immortalised himself forever for orchestrating the greatest ever come back in the history of test cricket. The Eden Gardens test match in 2001 vs Australia. I doubt we will ever get to see something like that again.

Shoaib Akhtar called him a nightmare to bowl to, not sure where you are picking this from.Just randomly saw his batting clips too, was a great batter only afraid of Shoaib Akhtar and Glenn McGrath
Legends who excelled in #3 Test batting position are Don Bradman, Vivian Richards, Rahul Dravid, Ricky Ponting, Brian Lara, Younis Khan, Hashim Amla, Ian Chappell, and Kumar Sangakkara.
Dravid is the best Indian Test batsman in history, above Tendulkar who was a tried and tested failure in the #3 batting test batting position.

And this guy claims he has been watching cricket for 4 decades.When did Tendulkar bat at 3?
He can just check howstat.And this guy claims he has been watching cricket for 4 decades.
Now wstch him shift goalposts how it takes cajones to bat at the #3 spot
Yep. no number 3 for him but Dravid has nothing to do with thisHe can just check howstat.
275x at no 4
1x at opening
29x at 5
20x at 6
And 4x at 7
Not a single time at no 3 in both fc and test.
Sachin Tendulkar has nothing to do with this either and yet a poster brought him in this.Yep. no number 3 for him but Dravid has nothing to do with this
I also rate Travis > root
I rate all format players higher then Test only specialists.In ODI's, right? Yes, I'd rate Head ahead of Root as well in ODI cricket. ODI cricket has completely changed after the introduction of the 2 new ball rule. Ever since it has been about who can dominate attacks instead of who can score at a steady pace.
First he needs to surpass Sidhu and Gambhir.When it comes to dravid, I don't see Travis surpassing hin either. In odi yes, not in test
