Nayagarh,(Baghuabarta): In a major coup, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has managed to convince Rahul Dravid to take over as head coach of the Indian men’s team. It is understood that despite saying no to the job earlier, the board officials including president Sourav Ganguly and secretary Jay Shah had met Dravid in Dubai on Saturday and following long negotiations, the former India captain eventually agreed for a two-year deal. Ever since it became certain that current head coach Ravi Shastri won’t continue in his role post the World Cup, the BCCI has been trying to get Dravid on board. However, Dravid had been firm in his decision and citing the young family, has preferred to continue in his role as head of cricket at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru.
