There hasn't been a more calming sight in the world cricket history than watching Dravid defending the red cherry. It was not even a push but rather a gentle kiss from his bat to the ball, such was his value for his wicket. Indians felt safe or rather secured when they saw Rahul Dravid setting in by leaving the balls outside off ever so accurately.

Rahul Dravid got the name 'The Wall' for his unwavering concentration on the field. He faced a total of 31258 balls in his test career!

With T20 becoming the eat all and breathe all for modern day players it would still remain a dream to even think of facing that many amounts of balls against a bowling attack nowhere near what 'Jam' faced.

#1 Most time spent on the cricket field.

Fondly known as Mr. Dependable throughout his career Rahul Dravid was truly an epitome of patience, grit, concentration. His ability to bat for long hours separated him from the rest. His ability, technique, and knowledge of the game helped him bat for hours and hours.

Dravid may not be the highest run-getter in test cricket but he surely has stayed on the cricket pitch more than Sachin Tendulkar. Rahul Dravid spent a total of 44,152 minutes on the field! Proving why he was deserving of the tag 'The Wall'.
