Imran rates Rahul over Inzamam


Rahul Dravid's leadership qualities has earned him rich accolades from the legendary Imran Khan, who described him as an "aggressive player with good leadership qualities".

Imran Khan, a former Pakistan cricket captain, preferred Dravid as the captain of a combined India-Pakistan team ahead of Inzamamul Haq.

Dravid took over as the captain of the Indian team from Sourav Ganguly following the Bengal batsman's spat with coach Greg Chappell in September last year.

Asked why he opted for Dravid ahead of Inzamam as the captain of the hypothetical team, Imran told NDTV that the Karnataka batsman had good leadership qualities.

"Dravid is a more aggressive player with good leadership qualities", he said.
