Rahul Dravid likely to coach Team India on Sri Lanka tour

The team for the Sri Lanka series will be announced later this month

After working as an adviser to the Indian Cricket Team in 2014 on the England tour, Rahul Dravid will once again work with the team later this year on the Sri Lanka tour, according to an ANI report.

Dravid will be coaching the limited-overs team that is scheduled to play two white-ball series against Sri Lanka, while Ravi Shastri, Bharat Arun and Vikram Rathour are in England with the Test Team.

Rahul Dravid became the head of the National Cricket Academy in 2019. He has also been working with the Under-19 and the India A Teams since 2015.

The team for the Sri Lanka series is expected to be announced by the end of the month as the matches are set to begin from July 13, 2021. The Men in Blue will trial a new white-ball team with a fresh skipper as the Virat Kohli-led Test squad will be in England during that period for a five-match Test series.
