Former players want Dravid as India coach

Ever since retiring from international cricket, Rahul Dravid has done a wonderful job as a player- cum- mentor of Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League ( IPL). And now that he has stopped plying his trade even in the IPL; he will only mentor the Royals from this year.

Former Indian cricketers — led by Sunil Gavaskar — feel that Dravid could be the perfect candidate to replace Duncan Fletcher as India coach.

“Rahul Dravid is one man who is enormously respected and is a successful captain having won a series in West Indies and England. When he speaks, the Indian players, some of whom are superstars, listen to him as they know how much preparation went into his game,” Gavaskar told a news channel on Monday

LOL K

When was the last time India had an Indian coach, out of interest? Either way I think foreign coaches have worked better for them than local ones. Ego issues, maybe?
