BCCI finally announces new coach

By

On Friday, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) finally declared that they have decided to extend the term of former India captain Rahul Dravid as the head coach of India Under-19 and India A for 2 years. Under his guidance, the India Under-19 team achieved great success and went to the Under-19 World Cup finals in 2016. He has worked with the likes of Ishan Kishan, Rishab Pant and Sarfaraz Khan who are being touted as future India senior team prospects. He also took the India A team to victory in his first assignment as a coach in the triangular series held in Australia.

Over the last two years, Rahul Dravid has been instrumental in getting young talents into the mix who have proved their worth on the big stage. We are glad to continue his services for the next two years and we are sure that this a bright sign for the Indian cricket which will see many more young talents coming up in the future," BCCI Acting President CK Khanna said in the release.
BCCI acting secretary, Amitabh Choudhary said, "Rahul Dravid is known for the discipline and commitment he brings to the table. He has been successful in grooming the youngsters in the last two years. I wish him all the very best for his assignments with the two teams for the next two years."
With this development, he won't be able to be a part of the Delhi Daredevils in the IPL. Post the confirmation of his selection, Delhi Daredevils issued a statement congratulating him. "It was an honour and privilege to have Rahul Dravid as mentor of the Delhi Daredevils over the last two years. We truly enjoyed our association and nurtured some great young talent together. We are sad that he will not continue with us as mentor as he chooses to serve India A as a coach. Being a true servant of cricket, he believes he still has a lot to give back to the game and help nurture young India talent. We wish him all the best."

Rahul 'The Wall' Dravid has been one of the greats of the game and is one of the highest run accumulators with over 24,000 International runs. We wish him all the luck for his new role.
