Rahul Dravid signs off as India coach with World Cup high
The HinduRahul Dravid's tenure as India head coach, which got a glorious closure with the T20 World Cup triumph here, will remain a case study on how to be stately and understated at the same time in modern-day cricket coaching. From the outset, Dravid -- fair or unfair -- had to match up to the lofty legacy of his predecessor Ravi Shastri, under whom India had a fine run including back-to-back away series win in Australia, the Holy Grail of Test cricket for teams from the sub-continent. Realising the enormity of his task early, Dravid handed Shreyas Iyer a debut in his first Test series as coach -- against New Zealand at home. However, in the deepest corners of his mind Dravid will rue the missed chance of winning the 50-over World Cup at home after his side succumbed to Australia in the final.
