SL vs IND 2021: Rahul Dravid Once Again Wins Everyone’s Hearts

Former Indian cricketer and interim coach of the Indian Cricket Team, Rahul Dravid has shown his humility and sheer dedication to the game of cricket a million times. He is regarded as one of the best brains present out there when it comes to cricket. He has and is continuing to nurture young Indian talents to become the future of Indian cricket.

The final ODI between India and Sri Lanka once again witnessed a classic Dravid moment. The legend was seen having a long conversation with the Sri Lankan captain Dasun Shanaka during the time when rain had stopped play.

Both Indian and Sri Lankan fans were delighted to see this as it is very rare to see coaches interact with opponent team players.

Some even jokingly tweeted that maybe the former India batsman had said too much, because of which, India’s batting completely collapsed in the third ODI.

Later, India lost that match by three wickets, but the men in blue had already secured a series win.
