Rahul Dravid, the former India head coach, has been enjoying his life after the rigors of guiding the Indian team for three years. He was recently seen ground staff of the National Cricket Academy (NCA) on Sunday, August 11. Dravid even rolled his arms to enjoy the weekend.

After devoting his time to Indian cricket team from November 2021 to June 2024 as the head coach, Dravid has been spending quality time with his family back home. He was seen warming up while playing cricket with NCA staff and bowled to the batter while dressed casually.

He has previously served as NCA Head, a position now filled by former India star VVS Laxman. Dravid is well-known for his heroics with the bat and as a coach. The former part-time off-spinner did, however, take five wickets in 51 overs in international cricket.  

In one-day internationals, he has dismissed Pakistan's Saeed Anwar (1999) and South Africa's Shaun Pollock, Gary Kirsten, and Lance Klusener (2000).

Though Rahul Dravid faced a few heartbreaks during his tenure as India's head coach, with defeats in the finals of WTC 2023 and the ICC World Cup 2023, the former India captain managed to end his coaching stint on a high as India won the T20 World Cup 2024 to end their 11 year wait for an ICC Trophy.
