Joe Root has insisted helping England win games rather than surpassing Sachin Tendulkar as Test cricket's all-time leading run-scorer remains his primary motivation after moving into second place in the standings.
He may be 52 years old, but Dravid has shown that his love for playing the sport hasn’t diminished a bit, teaming up with his younger son Anvay (16) in a Sri Nassur Memorial Shield 3rd division game on Saturday.
Former India captain and coach Rahul Dravid has been appointed Rajasthan Royals' head coach on a multi-year contract ahead of the 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL) season, the IPL franchise said on Friday.
“You are an absolute stalwart of this game but you left all of your accolades and achievements at the door and walked in as our coach and came on a level where we all felt comfortable enough to say just about anything to you,” Rohit wrote on the Instagram post.
Rohit’s bold stance and Kohli’s sacrifice bore fruit as they both have now hung up their boots in T20Is as World Cup winners.
India head into Saturday's T20 World Cup final against South Africa hoping it will be third time lucky as the cricketing powerhouse looks to deliver a world title after successive defeats in finals.
India were unbeaten in the initial pool phase as they advanced into a Super Eights featuring two groups of four. Afghanistan, however, have also justified their billing as potential semi-finalists.
"Such a big role model for all of us," Rohit said. "Growing up we watched him play and we know what he's achieved personally as a player and what he's done for the team over the years."
At a press conference ahead of India's first game against Ireland in New York, Dravid stated he will not reapply for the role, with the BCCI advertising the role from last month.

Shah also informed that India would not adopt a split-coaching model.
