Rahul Dravid appointed as coach of senior men’s Indian cricket team There was an air of inevitability about it. it was a natural progression for them former captain of india, who, after his retirement in 2012, dabbled in commentary before slipping into mentor-cum-coach template. He guided India’s Under-19 team, the ‘A’ team, and headed the National Cricket Academy in his hometown of Bengaluru. it was building up to all Indian team coach seat, which was becoming empty after the following Incumbent Ravi Shastri’s contract The culmination of the ongoing ICC Twenty20 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). However, like his steady batting, which earned him the nickname ‘The Wall’, Dravid Wasn’t in a hurry. He loves measured moves and it is a trait that defined him from his school days to becoming one of the greatest batsmen of the game, putting a heavy cost on his wicket. A round personality, equally comfortable on the ground or in the company of books, Dravid was always a team-man. He even donned wicketkeeping gloves in One Day Internationals to balance the playing XI. He comes with the weight of great stature, the warmth of goodwill and the pressure of expectations. It is not an easy situation in a country where everyone has an opinion on everything about cricket.
Dravid bats With an in-the-trench resolution to define his efforts on the pitch. He was also a remarkable close fielder, a trait that gets lost under the avalanche of his runs. He remained an outspoken captain and his act of declaring the Indian innings during the 2004 Multan Test against Pakistan, while Sachin Tendulkar was nearing his double century, became the strongest team-first-record issued in the history of Indian cricket. -remained one of the later decrees. History. But as a player or captain at that time, Dravid was in control, but as a coach, his role is all about tactics of finesse apart from preparing the current captain and the organization for a competition. It’s about transferring knowledge and hoping that her children will deliver. It is tough, and in the past, men of pedigree like Kapil Dev, Greg Chappell and Anil Kumble had mixed runs while developing as coaches. India may have suffered a setback during the ICC T20 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates, and yet it is a core-unit that has performed well both domestically and overseas over the past months. Seen in that light, Dravid has inherited the right mix. Still, there are missing links. Recently, India has not won any significant ICC silverware while victories in 1983, 2007 and 2011 seem far-fetched. It should offer enough food to think about, while the 48-year-old wears a coach’s hat.
