In all three formats of the game, the former right-handed batsman holds the record for the most consecutive innings without a duck. He played 173 innings without a duck combining all three formats of the game

The veteran also holds the same record in the 50-over format. In One-Day Internationals, Dravid played 120 innings without a duck

Test Cricket, a format in which, Rahul Dravid holds a strong position has the record of the most nineties. Representing India in 164 Test matches, Dravid registered 10 nineties

Donning Team India's white jersey in the traditional format of the game, Rahul Dravid also holds the record for the most number of catches. His career ended with 210 catches in Test Cricket

Often known to bat for long hours, Rahul Dravid was labelled as the "Wall of Indian cricket". Apart from this, he was also known to be versatile with his batting position

At times, when the team used to fall short of a wicketkeeper, Dravid used to be the one ready to donn the "Big Gloves". Retired as a legend, Rahul Dravid continues to inspire generations with his gestures and contributions on and off the field
