I Wish People Remember This Coaching Staff For Things They Achieved: Karthik

Mumbai: Praising Team India’s outgoing coaching staff, wicketkeeper-batter Dinesh Karthik said people shouldn’t only talk about India not winning an ICC event under the current staff, but also about how many bilateral series India won.

Karthik said the apparent absence of ICC silverware should not be the first thing that is associated with the trio. He explained how each member of the coaching staff brought something to the table and improved the quality and depth of the team.

Speaking on Cricbuzz, Kartik said, “We always talk about how Shastri was not able to deliver an ICC title but we should also speak about how many bilateral series we won under him, it was second to none. I wish people remember this set of coaching staff for all the things they achieved in terms of batting, bowling and fielding. ”

Rahul Dravid will have two captains to manage, with Virat Kohli stepping down from his role as T20 captain. Karthik feels that Rohit Sharma and Dravid will click immediately. He is eager to see how Kohli’s dynamism with Dravid gives his contrasting personality. Karthik added:

“Rohit and Rahul know each other well, they will be in constant touch during this whole process. It will be interesting to see the Kohli-Dravid dynamic. Very different personalities, they have not worked too much together as well. Maybe a season with RCB together”

Rahul Dravid will take charge of Team India from the upcoming series against New Zealand later in November 2021.
