NEW DELHI: BCCI secretary Anurag Thakur on Wednesday said that the cricket board will have to deliberate over Rahul Dravid’s candidature before taking any decision on India’s next coach but assured that the right person will be selected at the appropriate time. With Ravi Shastri’s contract as Team Director coming to an end after the completion of ICC World T20, Dravid’s name has been doing the rounds for the job.
Thakur said: “I think media publishes many reports which are not even discussed at any level. Rahul Dravid has done extremely well as a player and he has been outstanding with India A and U-19 players.
“Before taking any call, we have to discuss that within BCCI that who we want to hire for the next 2 or 3 years till the 2019 World Cup and who could be best for Indian cricket. (pti)
