The Rohit Sharma-led Indian team will begin its campaign in the T20 World Cup 2024 on Wednesday. India will face Ireland first. ‘Hitman’ Rohit has made a big revelation before the match. Rohit said on Tuesday that he had requested Rahul Dravid to remain as the head coach of Team India but could not succeed. Dravid’s tenure comes to an end after the T20 World Cup. He is holding this position from November 2021. His tenure was extended in November last year. The deadline (May 27) to apply for the position of head coach has passed.
“I tried to convince him to stop, but obviously there are many things he has to take care of,” captain Rohit said at the press conference ahead of the India vs Ireland match. I personally enjoyed my time with him.” Let us tell you that Rohit made his debut in international cricket in 2007 under the captaincy of Dravid. Recalling that time, Rohit said, “He was my first international captain when I made my debut in Ireland. When I came into the team for the Test match, I saw him play closely. He is a great role model for all of us.
The Indian team is yet to win a single ICC trophy during Dravid’s tenure. Will T20 continue in West Indies and America? World Cup Will this trend break? All fans will be watching this one. Rohit said, “He has shown a lot of strength throughout his career and I wanted to learn from him when he came here as coach. It has been very fruitful. We have won all the major tournaments and series except the big trophy. I have enjoyed everything while working with him. Determining the direction the team needs to go.
Dravid had made it clear on Monday that the T20 World Cup would be his last assignment as head coach. Gautam Gambhir’s name is leading in the race to replace Rohit. However, it could not be confirmed whether Gambhir has filled the application or not. However, Gambhir has expressed his willingness to take up this responsibility. “I would love to coach the Indian team,” he said recently. There is no greater honor than coaching your national team.
