Is Dravid Jealous/Afraid of Sachin?

Is Dravid Jealous/Afraid of Sachin??

Is the Indian captain jealous of sachin???? Or has he got worried about his captaincy?? This argument might sound ridiculous to some people as they read the heading but i am not writing it without any base??

In the SA series, 3rd Test, 1 innings of SA batting, whoever saw sachin bowl, would have believed that the master had the trick to run down the batting line of SA in the second innings such was the turn he was getting. One of my friends that day went ahead and mentioned if Warne could be jealous of someone one-day, then it should be Sachin today!! But after all that we saw our captain not giving him the bowling. He gave him 3 overs at the death and what bowling he did for those 3 overs. The SA batsmen just didnt know what to do about him.

When a layman knew that Sachin's ball was turning, when the SA captain says that we were afraid of handling Tendulkar's bowling on the last day why didn't our captain know that. Was he so insensible or was he afraid that Sachin will become a star of yet another match and grow more(not that the master needs to) and in turn affect our already suffering Captain's image.

And now after he is appointed the VC, Dravid'd brain gives him another idea bring Sachin down the order. WHAT CRAP?

Dravid gave the reasons for that as

-> Strenthening the middle order??
If a opener has to come down the order and do that, then what the heck is the captain doing in the middle order??

-> Best batsman??
When Dravid knows that he is the best in the business then y is he not given the full quota of overs to face?

If these questions are raised, the Supporters of WALL come back saying,When the opponent sees Sachin not out in the score board, they have chill in their vein, Because they don't know when the bom will blast. This gives a Psychological advantage for India. Okie then why dont we send him down at 5 down or 6 down..or probably 9 down!!! We can threaten the opposition till then.

By sending Sachin down the order it is so easy for dravid, When we need to chase a target... People can waste as much balls as possible... and then wickets too.. happily put sachin under the pressure to win it single handedly.. if he is not able to then ppl can happily proclaim that "SACHIN IS NOT A MATCH WINNER".. "SACHIN FAILS UNDER PRESSURE" and all that.

There is one more super theory i heard from a DRAVID supporter, Sachin is a good tactician and is experienced, So he now needs to look into the tactics of the Game.When you look into tactics you have to reduce your main work load which you had before. A good leader is who finds a sub ordinate to take the task forward. So Dravid as a Good leader (MY FOOT!!!) has done that job.

By bringing Sachin down the order, they have not achieved anything. He is under more pressure, less opportunity to score and contribute and this is what has been achieved by Mr.WALL.

One thing is for sure, by bringing Sachin to 4 Dravid has started moving into the shoes of Ganguly (he also did this and the reason was the same), so you never what is in store for the future. One thing for sure, wherever he is SACHIN is a star and no one can do anything about it!
