The Indian team will play a match for the last time under the leadership of head coach Rahul Dravid. India will face South Africa in the final of the T20 World Cup. When the Indian team takes the field for the match to be held in Barbados on Saturday, it will also be Rahul Dravid's last match with the team as a coach. Winning the World Cup will not be a moment of personal pride for Dravid, it will be the achievement of the team. According to him, if India becomes the world champion, it will be the result of the team's efforts and Rohit Sharma's inspiring captaincy.
Dravid's contract had ended.
Dravid's contract ended after the ODI World Cup in November, but the team management had urged him to fulfill this responsibility till the T20 World Cup. The broadcaster of the T20 World Cup has run a campaign on social media called 'DoitForDravid' which is getting support from the cricket world and fans, but 51-year-old Dravid wants to win this global title not for any person but for the team.
'Want to win for the team, not for any particular person'
Dravid told a sports channel, I just want to play good cricket. I am against the fact that the team should do it for any particular person. I do not want to talk about it and neither do I want to discuss it. I do not believe in 'doing something for someone'. I like the example in which a person is asking someone else, why do you want to climb Mount Everest? And he says I want to climb Mount Everest because it is there. I want to win this World Cup because it is there. It is not for any particular person, it is just to win.
Dravid was in great form on the England tour in 2011. He emerged as the highest run-scorer Indian player on this tour. At this time many people believed that he would now say goodbye to the game. When asked about this in Bangalore after this tour, he said that his focus is now on the tour of Australia at the end of the year. Almost 12 years after that tour of Australia, Dravid is once again in the same situation. If the Indian team wins the World Cup at Kensington Oval, a lot of credit will go to Rohit Sharma and the players of the team, but Dravid will also be one of its heroes. Whether the team wins or loses, Dravid will remain as calm as he was as a player.
