Indian spin maestro Ravichandran Ashwin recounted the poignant moment when former Indian head coach Rahul Dravid embraced the T20 World Cup 2024 trophy, tears flowing freely after steering the Men in Blue to their first major trophy in 11 years during his final tenure as coach.
Dravid`s tenure culminated with triumph as India secured the T20 World Cup, defeating South Africa in a tense final by seven runs on June 29. This victory marked a personal redemption for the legendary cricketer, who had previously missed out on major ICC World Cup triumphs as a player and captain. Shortly thereafter, former Indian opener Gautam Gambhir was announced as his successor, set to commence his tenure with the white-ball tour of Sri Lanka starting July 27.
