Quite impressive - wasn't he supposed to be a poor captain?
Both the Wanderers and TB wins were because of the incisiveness of our
bowling, not moments of captaincy genius. Simple as that.
He does continue to make some quite daft bowling changes often enough
to kind of not inspire confidence. Rather paradoxical, given that in
respect of his own batting, he has over the years shown himself to be
an intelligent student of the game.

Really good bowlers delivering the goods have a way of making their
captain look smart. Zaheer, and to a lesser degree, Singh did that
for Dravid in T2.

If one is a Dravid hater one can always find reasons not to attribute
any team success to his captaincy. Even though Zaheer was a key figure
in winning this game, by no means it was due to his efforts alone that
India won this game. Cricket is a team sport and everyone including
Dravid as a captain has contributed to this win..:)
