Following India’s triumphant victory in the T20 World Cup, coach Rahul Dravid’s name is being celebrated widely. Dravid, known as “The Wall,” has been a stalwart in Indian cricket, consistently preventing the fall of wickets and achieving numerous accolades as a player. His legacy has reached new heights as he now adds a World Cup victory as a coach to his impressive resume.
Indian cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar has called for Dravid to be honored with India’s highest civilian award, the Bharat Ratna. Gavaskar emphasized that Dravid is deserving of this prestigious award, highlighting his contributions as a captain, player, and coach. “As the chairman of the National Cricket Academy, he brought many young talents to the fore… As the coach of the Indian team, he has delivered incredible results. Dravid has always put the team’s interests above his own and has been a source of entertainment for all sections of cricket fans. It would be wonderful to see Rahul Dravid honored with the Bharat Ratna. Let’s urge the Centre to bestow this award upon him. I hope you will join me in this appeal,” Gavaskar stated.
