There are reports regarding Rahul Dravid the Team India’s head coach is returning as the head coach of the Rajasthan Royals. There are discussions going on between Dravid and RR and the announcement regarding that will be in public soon. Right now the Rajasthan Royal’s coach and director of cricket is Kumar Sangakkara, Who has not won the IPL since the first edition in 2008.
Rahul Dravid seems to have a good relationship with RR, and In 2013, he was the captain who led them to the Champions League T20 final and the IPL playoffs, Before getting into the role of mentor in 2014 and 2015, Rahul Dravid led the team to a third-place finish in the IPL.
Dravid is all set to start the next chapter of his life after completing his successful session as India's head coach. He is going to be the new head coach of the Rajasthan Royals and he has also previously been the captain of the team in the IPL.
After, his retirement announcement, Dravid was engaged as a mentor by RR, where he contributed for two seasons before assuming the role of head coach for India-U19.
Journey of Rahul Dravid as Indian head coach
Rahul Dravid played an important role in guiding the Indian team to the T20 World Cup 2022 semifinal, the WTC 2023 final, and the ODI World Cup final in 2023. His coaching journey came to a head in a memorable swansong at the T20 World Cup 2024, as he bid farewell as a World Cup-winning coach.
The player was supposed to finish his contract with the BCCI after the ODI World Cup 2023. However, he chose to continue and played a key role in helping the Men in Blue win the T20I World Cup in the Caribbean, where they didn't lose any matches throughout the tournament.
It's still not clear whether Rajasthan Royals is going to relieve Sangakkara from his previous duties or Will Dravid's hiring will help the Sri Lankan cricket legend concentrate entirely on his duties as the franchise's Director of Cricket.
Meanwhile, hiring Rahul as the Royals' head coach would be a clever mode before the IPL 2025 as the team is aiming to put an end to their dry period of winning the IPL trophy.
