Young New Zealand all-rounder Rachin Ravindra on Thursday said he was clueless if his name had any link with Rahul Dravid but he hoped to pick the brains of the India chief coach during the course of the ongoing T20I series. Rachin, who celebrated his 22nd birthday on Thursday, was asked during a virtual media conference here if his name had any connect with two of India`s greatest cricketers Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar.
"Honestly, I`m not too sure. I`ve never really asked mom and dad where the name has come from... I guess you`d have to ask them," he said. Rachin is born in Wellington to Indian parents, Ravi Krishnamurthy and Deepa Krishnamurthy, both of whom moved from Bangalore in 1990s. Rachin made his New Zealand debut in the 2016 U-19 World Cup as well as the 2018 U-19 Cricket World Cup and during that time he first caught up with Dravid, who was the coach of India juniors.
