 IS IT A CRIME TO OMIT DRAVID

Why there is such a huge hue and cry on the omission of Dravid from upcoming series of ODIs against Pakistan? 

               Dravid as a captain, insisted for the inclusion of Sehwag who was not at all in form,much against to the decision of selectors,for the last world cup and what did Sehwag deliver?
                        Indian team returned home,even without passing the first and simple hurdle of first round against weak teams.                          
                         Did "Mr.Dependable" apologize the nation for this debacle,which was self made?
In the recently concluded test series against England,is one of the tests where India was having a mammoth lead of 319 runs in the first innings,and having almost two full days on hand,why didn't "Mr.Wall" enforce the follow on.Was he a defeatist or a traitor?And how did he bat in 2nd innings? 
               Having faced more than 90 balls, scored that meagre 12 runs.Is he pardonable?He should have resigned as a skipper on any one of these occassions,if the selectors didnot remove him.
                  Under his captaincy two young cricketers like Dinesh Karthik and Robin Uthappa were neglected and kept in dark.
            What is his performance in the recently concluded ODIs against Austrailia?In as many as 7 matches,his average is 8.88 and still he is to be continued?If it it is the past performance that counts and not the present one,
                     Then shall we recall that great players like Gavaskar,KapilDev,Vengsarkar, Dedi etc depending on their past performance?
                 All those who plead for Rahul Dravid should know the bare fact that he is no more "Mr.Dependable" and "The Wall" had collapsed long back.Let the fresh water flow in...........................

I'd like to make a point here...If u've forgotten, Rahul DID propose to send in his resignation as captain soon after the team returned from the Caribbean debacle but at that time the BCCI was extremely circumspect about the team's future- May be the 'hidden talent' of Mahender Singh Dhoni wasn't known to anybody out there..so they insisted on Rahul hanging on for some more time. Personally as a staunch cricket buff and a genuine admirer of great spirit of sportsmanship, I'd only say that by doubting the credentials or intentions of a class player like Rahul one is being unfaithful to his love for the gentleman's game.
