Rahul Dravid appointed India A, Under-19 cricket coach: BCCI

New Delhi: The Board of Control for Cricket in India on Saturday stated that Rahul Dravid has agreed to coach India A and under-19 teams.

Dravid, who was expected to play an important role for the BCCI, will don the coaching hat to enter a new phase in his career. Since his retirement, ‘The Wall’ has been involved in several commentary stints.

Earlier, BCCI secretary Anurag Thakur said that Dravid’s services would be sought at an appropriate time and finally the day has come when they have come into finding a role for the former India legend.

Moreover, an advisory panel was formed by the BCCI which consists of Sourav Ganguly, Sachin Tendulkar and VVS Laxman. The BCCI had said the three legends’ guidance will be sought in preparing the national team for gruelling overseas assignments besides strengthening the domestic structure.

Their inputs will also be taken while appointing the new coach to replace Duncan Fletcher, whose tenure has ended.
