New Delhi. The current Indian team coach Rahul Dravid’s tenure is till T20 World Cup 2024. BCCI has issued applications for new coaches. However, nothing has been clarified by the BCCI about who will be the next head coach. Meanwhile, Rahul Dravid himself has confirmed that he will not be coaching India in future. This World Cup will be his last season.
Rahul Dravid said, “Every tournament is important. Every match that I have coached has meant a lot to me. This will be my last so nothing will be different for me here. I enjoyed doing my job. It was good for me to coach the Indian team. I enjoyed working with the team. Here is a large group of boys. “Due to my schedule I don’t think I will be able to reapply for this post.”
Gambhir could be the next coach
If Gautam Gambhir is made the coach of Team India then it will definitely benefit the Indian team. He has an experience of 147 ODIs, 58 Tests and 37 T20 Internationals. He has played more than 500 domestic matches. This is a plus point with gout. He knows well the young players coming from different states. He is also in touch with many of them. Perhaps no one understands our cricket structure better than him.
