“It is not that players did not make mistakes in the past. It is not that mistakes will not be made in the future despite our best efforts to educate the youth. But let us not overreact please,” Dravid told The Hindu.
Rahul also said that the councilling process that was conducted before last two under-19 World Cups should be improvised.
