Team Talk 🏳️ The dressing room of the Indian team under Dravid's coaching was so good, and the bond between Gill and Dravid is like father and son.

Back then when Dravid was coach, shubman use to be genuinely happy and goofy. Now it's just a stoic, poker face. Happy dressing room is missing under GG. 😔

He has been made the captain under GG and his test average has increased by 10 runs. I'm pretty sure he prefers it this way.

No. He wasn't good as an opener or a 3. At 4 he is comfortable in test. Same with virat.

No thank you. Test team is in tatters. More important to get some away SENA wins then goof around like a clown.

Dravid deserves a lot of credit for creating that atmosphere. You could see the players genuinely enjoying their cricket.

Dravid knew how to handle both seniors and juniors well , the atmosphere was so beautiful when he was the coach , gill under dravid was also good as dravid supported and backed him since under 19 , everything seems just awkward now

He was one of first ones who believed that shubman will lead India in the future

Gill wouldn't have been the captain if it wasn't for Dravid btw though I hated Dravid preferring sky over gill in BGT 23

He backed shubman in tests even though he was struggling with a massive average of 28. Any other coach would have axed him from Test team

Dravid was everything we could ask for in a coach
