The Indian Cricket Team is undergoing a massive transformation with Rahul Dravid taking over as the new head coach and Rohit Sharma’s appointment as captain of both the ODI and T20 teams.
The Rohit-Dravid duo began their journey in a three-match T20I series against New Zealand at home last month in which the Men in Blue whitewashed the visitors 3-0. Sharma was awarded the Man of the Series award for his performances with the bat in the series.
India player Rahul Dravid took over the reins of Team India’s head coach after the 2021 T20 World Cup and Rohit Sharma praised him. Rohit, who has recently been named India’s white-ball captain, has shared that Dravid worked hard as a player. Sharma also added that Dravid will ensure the team gets used to his culture of hard work.
Rohit said:
“Rahul Bhai was a brilliant cricketer, we all know that without a doubt. We all know how he has played his cricket. He himself has come out and said on so many occasions that he was not so talented. He had to work so hard to get where he is today. I think that is going to reflect on this team as well.”
He continued: “Making sure that we work hard as a team. That nothing is given on a platter to anyone. He will make you work hard. Obviously, when you do that, when you enjoy that process, you feel good about it. Because there is a process that has been put in place.”
