Rahul Dravid, Team India’s lead trainer during the white-ball series against Sri Lanka, appears to choose whatever is best as of now. His young men came from an escape and proceeded to win the second ODI by three wickets. The guests were done for when they were decreased to 193/7 in a run-pursue of 276. Enter Deepak Chahar at number eight and, the appearance of the match changed totally.
He scored an unbeaten 69 and took the Men in Blue home in what was most likely the best rearguard activity at any point found throughout the entire existence of ODI cricket lately. In any case, it ends up, the mentor himself had a say or two in the strained run-pursue.
As the pressing factor was strengthening, Dravid came running from the changing area to pass a message or two to Chahar. In an image that is becoming famous online via web-based media, Dravid can be seen having a word to Chahar’s cousin Rahul and causing him to get what precisely should be said to the player, who was gradually taking India home to the end goal.
The fans appear to be happy by what they saw and in a split second tried to make the scene viral. Twitter loved the way that Dravid was so engaged with the run-pursue and needed an ideal finish to the match.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar credits Rahul Dravid for sending Deepak Chahar in front of him
During the post-match public interview, bad habit chief Bhuvneshwar Kumar was gotten some information about the procedure of sending Chahar in front of him. Bhuvi credited Dravid and said that the mentor had seen Chahar batting great in past India A visits and thus felt that he ought to bat ahead.
“See, he’s played with our mentor Rahul Dravid before for India ‘A’ and some other series’ and he scored there too. Along these lines, he (Dravid) knew he (Chahar) could bat and he can hit a couple of balls. So that was his call and the manner in which he batted demonstrated him right. We as a whole realize he can bat, he has done it commonly. It was anything but an intense call yet it’s only nice to see the manner in which he scored runs,” Bhuvi said at the post-match question and answer session.
Here’s the way Twitter responded
Rahul Dravid came down to dug-out & met 12th man. He sat next to him / talked for about thirty seconds in a crucial stage of the match (70+ or something to win) and went back to his place in dressing room. 12th man delivered the message after the over. DC & BK took IND home.
