Promoted to No.5 with the responsibility of controlling the chase, Dravid adapted perfectly to the situation. Walking in when India were under pressure at 94/4, he combined with MS Dhoni in a crucial partnership that steadied the innings and guided India to victory. During his brilliant knock of 66, Dravid also achieved a historic milestone by becoming only the sixth batsman in ODI history to score 10,000 runs. After the match, Dravid downplayed the achievement and emphasized his satisfaction at having successfully batted in multiple positions throughout his ODI career, from opener to No.7, while also contributing as a wicketkeeper. Dravid also praised India's bowlers, particularly Zaheer Khan, Munaf Patel and Ajit Agarkar, whose disciplined bowling restricted Sri Lanka to a manageable total of 230. Even Sri Lankan captain Mahela Jayawardene admitted that Dravid's innings was the turning point of the match, describing him as the calming influence that kept India ahead of the required rate despite losing early wickets. A perfect example of Rahul Dravid's ability to absorb pressure, rotate strike and guide India home with calm authority. #RahulDravid #MSDhoni #IndiaVsSriLanka #Dravid10000Runs #CricketHighlights #TheWall #IndianCricket #ODICricket #ZaheerKhan #CricketHistory
