(Image Source: BCCI/X) Former head coach of Team India Rahul Dravid has made a big statement about Indian team’s star batsmen Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Dravid said that the truth is completely opposite to what fans think about captain Rohit Sharma, star batsman Virat Kohli or other big players. Dravid also made it clear that there is no ego or any kind of problem between the big players. While talking to Star Sports, the former Indian batsman said, “I believe that teams are really led by a group of senior players. They are led by the captain. So, I think it was a privilege to work with Rohit. I think he has been a fantastic leader in these two and a half years. People are really attracted to him and the team. I think that makes a lot of difference.” Managing high profile cricketers is not a difficult task- Rahul Dravid During this, Dravid also said that he never found it difficult to manage high-profile cricketers. He said, “There were many other senior players in the team, be it Virat, Jasprit Bumrah or Ravichandran Ashwin in Test cricket. Many Indian cricketers are big names, they are superstars and many people follow them. Sometimes people think that they will have a lot of ego and it will be very difficult to manage them. But actually it is just the opposite. A lot of these superstars are actually very humble about their preparation. They are humble about their work. And that is why they are superstars.” Dravid further said, “Look at 37-year-old Ashwin today. Even at this age, he is ready to adapt. He is ready to learn. This is just an example. Of course, at times you have to manage him, manage his body, manage the workload and there are many such things. But honestly, it was not very difficult. I had a good group of people around me and I am happy that we were able to create a good atmosphere. But a lot of credit for this goes to the captain and the seniors.”
BCCI source gave a big statement saying- The biggest challenge for Gautam Gambhir will be to manage the superstars
Gambhir is going to take up this responsibility from the ODI series against Sri Lanka. Gautam Gambhir (Pic Source-X) The ongoing T20I series against Sri Lanka was Gautam Gambhir’s first appointment as coach of any cricket team. But the real challenge for Gambhir will begin next month, when from August 2, he will have to join the ODI team, which includes some of the biggest names of Indian and international cricket. So, according to ESPN Cricinfo’s reports on this issue, a source closely associated with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) says that the biggest challenge for the Indian team’s head coach Gambhir will be to manage the superstars, which include big names like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Jaspreet Bumrah. Managing these players is not going to be easy for Gambhir. BCCI source gave a big statement Let us tell you that a BCCI source said about Gautam Gambhir- Managing these players is not an easy task. It is not like a franchise where you are the boss and you have your terms and conditions. That will not work here. You will have to pick up the phone in the dressing room of the Indian cricket team, talk to the players, in which Rahul Dravid was quite adept. The source further said- When Dravid joined this system, he found it a different kind of challenge, because the cricket scenario has changed a lot since his retirement. Every player is a millionaire and captains their respective franchise teams. So, this is going to be a big challenge for Gambhir. Also, according to the report, Gautam Gambhir has talked to veteran all-rounder Hardik Pandya and told him what he wants from him. For this, Gambhir has also requested the selectors committee that the all-rounder should be available for selection at all times.
