First part may be valid but surprised with second part. He was one of the less exciting players of his time, but he certainly had best technique. He is supposedly technically most correct till now (may be Dravid surpassed him now) Indian batsman, far more correct than legendary(?) Sunil Gavaskar. His career was cut short due to his poor scoring rate and poor running between wickets. His double hundred against pakistan was stellar performance (He got run out on 218).
