(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.”
