NEW DELHI: Former India batter Rahul Dravid is likely to return in IPL as a coach of Rajasthan Royals.
Dravid bowed out from his coaching duties after Rohit Sharma and co successfully clinched the T20 World Cup 2024 title in June, this year.
According to some media reports, if Kumar Sangakkara leaves RR setup to join England, then the vacant head coach spot is likely to be taken by Dravid. The 51-year-old was earlier RR’s skipper and then also guided the team as a mentor and a coach, before joining the BCCI setup.
About joining the England as the new coach, Sangakkara had said, “Well, I know my name has been mentioned for some reason, but there has not been any approach as such. I think the England white-ball job is an exciting prospect for anyone, but there are so many good candidates out there. I am very happy at the moment. The Rajasthan Royals experience has been very fulfilling and it has been a job I have really enjoyed over the last four years.”
