Indian team has won the T20 World Cup 2024 title by defeating South Africa by 7 runs. Captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have retired from T20 International cricket as soon as they won the T20 World Cup title. The Indian team has won the T20 World Cup trophy after 17 years. With the T20 World Cup 2024, the tenure of Indian team coach Rahul Dravid has ended. Dravid could never win an ICC trophy for Team India as a player, but now he has won the trophy as a coach.
Rahul Dravid became the coach of the Indian team in the year 2021. He gave a glimpse of the journey to success with dignity and decency even under the heavy pressure of modern cricket coaching. Dravid was rarely seen getting emotional. As soon as the final’s ‘Player of the Match’ Virat Kohli handed him the trophy, he made such a loud sound as if he was finally expressing all the emotions within him. No one can probably imagine seeing Dravid doing this. He never gives sensational headlines but keeps working quietly like Gary Kirsten.
𝗗𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗵! ☺️ 🏆

On the Indian team winning the T20 World Cup 2024 trophy, Coach Rahul Dravid said that I have no words to say, I am less proud of this team than I can be. As a player, I was not fortunate enough to win the trophy but I gave my best. I was fortunate enough to be given the opportunity to coach a team. Everyone did well. It is a great feeling. It has been a great journey.

Before Rahul Dravid, India had performed well under Ravi Shastri’s coach, so he had a big responsibility to take the team forward. As a coach, he could not tour Australia but his team defeated Australia in different formats. By the way, the Test series with one defeat and one draw against the weak South African team will continue to haunt him. Apart from the challenges on the field, handling the Indian dressing room full of superstars was no less challenging. He created an environment where every player could excel.
