The tenure of Team India’s head coach Rahul Dravid is over. He had jokingly said after the T20 World Cup 2024 that he will now be unemployed. But this does not seem to be happening. According to a report, Kolkata Knight Riders have contacted Dravid. KKR wants to give Dravid the post of mentor. There is a discussion about Gautam Gambhir that he is going to become the head coach of Team India. So his place is going to be vacant.
According to reports, KKR has approached Dravid. The team wants to make Dravid a mentor. Actually, there is news of Gautam Gambhir becoming the head coach of Team India. If Gambhir becomes the head coach of Team India, then his place in KKR will be vacant. Therefore, KKR would like to include a veteran in their dough out in place of the former KKR skipper and mentor Gautam Gambhir. Therefore, KKR can make Dravid a mentor.
Dravid’s coaching career has been strong
Team India won the T20 World Cup 2024 title under the coaching of Rahul Dravid. The Indian team had earlier reached the final of the ODI World Cup 2023. Here it had to face defeat against Australia. However, it had won all its matches before that. Dravid has a lot of coaching experience. If he joins KKR, the players can get a lot of benefit from it.
Dravid can replace Gambhir
After Gambhir’s return, KKR’s performance improved a lot. The team won the IPL 2024 title. Kolkata defeated Hyderabad in the final. Captained by Shreyas Iyer, this team topped the points table. After playing 14 league matches, KKR won 9 matches and lost just 3. Now Gambhir is about to retire from KKR. If Dravid joins KKR, he might get a huge salary.
