Rahul Dravid will bring his vast experience, work ethic that he embodied into Indian team: Sunil Gavaskar

Sunil Gavaskar has said that Indian cricket will only move "ahead and ahead" after appointment of Rahul Dravid as the senior men's team's new head coach. Dravid will replace Ravi Shastri in the role after the T20 World Cup.

Rahul Dravid will bring his "vast experience" and work ethic to the Indian setup alongwith his tactical nous, former captain Sunil Gavaskar has said. Dravid, who is widely rated among the greatest batsmen of all time, was announced as India's head coach on Wednesday and is set to replace Ravi Shastri in the role after the end of India's campaign in the ongoing T20 World Cup.

"Indian cricket should be going ahead and ahead," Gavaskar told India Today when asked which direction Indian cricket will take under Dravid.
