“It is difficult to be both a parent and a coach….”- Why did Rahul Dravid give such a statement on the question related to his son?

However, during this time, he tried to make a roundabout move on the question of coaching his son Samit (Samit Dravid). Let us tell you that Rahul Dravid’s son has performed sensationally in junior level cricket, due to which he came into the limelight. 18-year-old Samit Dravid played a key role in taking Karnataka to the final of the Cooch Behar Trophy. It is difficult to be a parent and coach- Rahul Dravid This all-rounder has scored 370 runs in 7 matches at an average of 37.78, which includes three half-centuries. Along with this, he has also taken three wickets in the tournament. Recently, on the question of giving coaching to his son, Rahul Dravid said that he does not give coaching to his son, because it is difficult for parent and coach to live together. While talking on Jio Cinema, he said, I do not even try to coach Samit. It’s hard to be a parent and coach. I’m just trying to be a parent. Don’t know what I am doing in that also. Further speaking on the abundance of left-handed batsmen in the team, he said, a good link has been formed with the arrival of players like Rinku Singh, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Tilak Verma. But in the end, we make selections based on performance and not just on the basis of left-right-handed batsman. The head coach also said that we still have left-handed players in the line-up. But it is not just about left-handed players, but the ability to play over a period and be able to deal with different types of spin. read this also- BCB President Nazmul Hasan will resign from his post, reason revealed
