Rahul Dravid's contribution to Cricket in India is brilliant, whether it is as a player for the Indian Cricket Team or as a Coach for the youth of Indian cricket. So, the cricketing fraternity took to twitter and wished him on his birthday and reminded us how big a legend Rahul Dravid was!
As Rahul Dravid turns 47 today, Twitter poured in their wishes for the ‘Wall’, who has played 31,258 balls and ground 44,152 bruising minutes at the crease for his well-earned 13,288 runs which had 36 test hundreds. We, at Sportscafe, wish a very happy birthday to the ‘Wall,’ which never fell apart.How many of you remember this gem of an innings?
Wishing The Wall - Rahul Dravid a very Happy Birthday. His exploits in Test cricket are well known but we thought we would relive one of his knocks in ODIs against New Zealand.

Now that's an exhausting stat!
The 13,288 runs don't tell you the real story, nor the 36 test hundreds.

Viru always comes up with funny tweets during someone's birthday!
From my understanding, I thought grinding only happens in the kitchen in the Mixer Grinder, but Dravid taught one can grind on the cricket pitch as well. We had it All when we had the Wall !#HappyBirthdayRahulDravid pic.twitter.com/eUVkpTtF8n
