India Suffered Major Disappointments In 2022. Test And Odi Series Loss In South Africa Failing To Reach The Finals Of The Asia Cup And T20 World Cup Losing The Edgbaston Test And To Add Salt To The Wound They Also Lost The Odi Series In Bangladesh.

The Stunning Losses In The Major T20I Games - To Pakistan And Sri Lanka In Asia Cup 10-Wicket Embarrassment By England In T20 Wc - Have Raised Serious Questions On The Captain-Coach Pair Of Rahul Dravid And Rohit Sharma Especially Now As The Bcci Has Decided To Build Up A T20I Squad Under Hardik Pandya (Rumored To Be The New T20I Captain) For The 2024 T20 World Cup.

While Dravid Remains The Point Man To Coach The Side In The Two Longer Formats There’S Not Much Point To Make Changes 9 Months Before The Home World Cup- It Perhaps Would Be The Best To Drop Him As A T20I Coach And Hire A New One.

Free Up Rahul Dravid From Extra Burden Of T20I Cricket The Key Reason Why We Believe It Would Be Best If Dravid Is Released From The T20I Coaching Job Is That It Will Free Up Space In His Mind And Calendar. Last Year Dravid Was Rested From Tours Of Ireland And New Zealand Due To His Workload Management - Which Was Duly Criticized By Former Coach Ravi Shastri - And Hence We Feel That The 49-Year-Old Should Focus More On The Other Two Formats Which Are Of Utmost Preference In 2023.

His Track Record As Coach Of T20 Teams Not Great Dravid And Rohit’S Team Selection Came Under Heavy Scrutiny In Major Tournaments Last Year. They Dropped Dinesh Karthik In The Asia Cup To Play Pant As The Left-Hander At The T20 World Cup The Likes Of Chahal And Harshal Patel Remained On The Bench Throughout The Tournament And We Don’T Need To Emphasize How Good They Both Have Been In The Past Two Years.

Have A Separate Discussion Room For The Shortest Format The Call From The Fans To The Bcci For The Past 2-3 Years And By Some Even Before That Has Been To Treat The T20I Format As A Totally Different Format And Not A Shorter Version Of Odi Cricket.India Though Have Been Opposite And Continued To Play Conservative Cricket With The Same Template That Has Worked For Them In Odis.

Bcci Give The Entire Command Of The T20I Team To Pandya And A New Coach Foreign Coach With Experience Of Coaching And Understanding The Modern T20 Cricket - And Allow Them To Build The Side For The 2024 T20 Wc As They Please. If The New Coach Demands The Axing Of Some Of The Senior Players - Which Perhaps Dravid Might Not Ask - Then So Be It.
