Rahul Dravid is all set to become the Head Coach of the Indian Men’s Cricket Team. According to the Times of India, BCCI president Sourav Ganguly and secretary Jay Shah have persuaded Dravid to take on the mantle and help Virat Kohli lead the team into the T20 World Cup in UAE.

Dravid is one of the most loved cricketer people in this country. So, naturally once the news went LIVE on social media, it didn’t take long to go viral, resulting in a celebration all over the country.
If it’s true Rahul Dravid is to be the next Indian coach I think the rest of the world better beware … !

I’m delighted to see Rahul Dravid as the Indian men’s coach. But give @RaviShastriOfc credit for helping build a formidable side across all 3 formats. And the incredible fight backs at the Gabba and the Oval were on his watch!

Rahul Dravid as the Indian coach. Just what the Doctor ordered

Till yesterday news reports were saying Rahul Dravid was going to stay at the NCA. Yet early morning news broke of him becoming India coach. So what happened around midnight? My best guess is Lord Shardul blew candles on his birthday cake wishing to be coached by Rahul bhai 😊

And like that, Dada once again convinces Jammy to take up a role which he initially didn’t want to. But Rahul Dravid being THE Rahul Dravid, cannot just say no when Team India calls him. “Ask him to walk on water and he’ll ask how many kilometres” #RahulDravid #CricketTwitter

Yes I think it will be fine too but still slightly surprised Dravid wants such a job with kohli/ huge travel commitments when he is doing a rewarding job close to home and family etc. I guess some transition from pujara/ Rahane possibly which Dravid will be good man to oversee

Though will be interesting to see how two very different personalities (Kohli and Dravid) handle the team. This is going to be real fun 😀🤯😀 pic.twitter.com/omrGSNCcqJ
