5 underrated ODI knocks of Rahul Dravid

2) 92 at Bristol against England in 2007

Rahul Dravid played some wonderful strokes during his knock of 92

This knock is special in many ways. In the 2nd ODI of the series between India and England in 2007, India started well thanks to their legendary opening duo of Tendulkar and Ganguly.

However, on a small ground like Bristol, they needed a score of well above 300 and required someone to provide the late fireworks.

In came the skipper, Rahul Dravid, who took the English bowlers apart with some delightful hitting and made 92 off just 63 balls. He helped India reach 329 and that proved decisive as India won the match by only 9 runs.

Known to be suited for the longest format, Dravid exhibited an entirely different style of batting which really pleased the large section of Indian fans that day.
