Former India captain Rahul Dravid picked Australian brains to create a talent identification system better than Australia in India, the legendary Greg Chappell has said, lamenting the current lack of a similar structure in his own country that was "one of the best at developing young players." Chappell said that both India and England have overtaken Australia as the best in recognising young talent and providing them a platform to succeed.
"India have got their act together and that`s largely because Rahul Dravid has picked our brains, seen what we`re doing and replicated it in India and with their much larger (population) base," Chappell told `cricket.com.au`. Dravid is the Director of Cricket Operations at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru. He was the head coach of India A and India under-19 cricket teams between 2016 and 2019. Chappell, one of the finest batsmen to have played the game, cautioned that talented Australian cricketers might find their careers at crossroads because of the domestic structure.
