Virender Sehwag emphasizes Rahul Dravid’s crucial role in maximizing the potential of the Indian cricket team for the upcoming World Cup.
With matches scheduled at various venues, Sehwag highlights the importance of Dravid in identifying key team components and optimizing their performance.
He draws parallels with Gary Kirsten’s approach during India’s 2011 World Cup victory, emphasizing the significance of allowing players to practice according to their preferences.
Sehwag states that Dravid’s job will be to determine practice durations and necessary breaks for players.
He also emphasizes that a coach’s reputation is determined by the players’ on-field performance, citing Kirsten’s success following India’s World Cup win.
Meanwhile, Virender Sehwag has emerged as a top candidate to assume the crucial position of Chief Selector for the men’s national team. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has approached Sehwag regarding the role, but negotiations have encountered a hurdle due to the proposed remuneration from the board. Sehwag is reportedly seeking better financial terms that align with the demanding responsibilities of the selector’s position. Nevertheless, he remains a highly regarded choice for the role.
