Dravid is believed to have wished for a more hands-on role, but at the same time he was reluctant towards the position of the head coach of the Indian national cricket team, majorly because of the demands of the job. The end of Duncan Fletcher’s tenure as Indian coach has sparked speculations as to who will be the right candidate for the role, and Dravid’s name is being prominently discussed.
Dravid has no history of working with the Indian national team after his retirement, apart from the brief mentorship of the touring Indian team in England in 2014, wherein they were slammed 3-1.
