What If: Sachin Tendulkar decided to become a fast bowler instead of a batsman

Sachin would gone down as a great domestic cricketer

#3 Rahul Dravid would have been India’s best batsman

Dravid would have been India’s best

Its possible that Rahul Dravid must have felt hard done by the fact that he was always in the shadow of Sachin Tendulkar despite being one of India’s best batsmen and amassing over 23000 runs in both formats combined.

Dravid provided the much-needed balance in the Indian middle order and saved India’s blushes numerous times in Test matches. His performance in the 4-0 drubbing which India received at the hands of England in 2011 will be fondly remembered for years to come.

If Sachin Tendulkar was present in the Indian team, Dravid, without a doubt, would have been India’s best batsman and would have received the recognition he truly deserved.
