  • I could not be more proud of you guys: Dravid
  • So many people have made so many sacrifices: Dravid

The Board of Control of Cricket in India (BCCI) has released a video wherein former Indian coach Rahul Dravid addressed the dressing room with a farewell speech after India lifted the 2024 ICC T-20 World Cup. Dravid was visibly emotional but also full of appreciation for the entire unit that pulled off a victory under the most unlikely of circumstances. “I’m really short of words but all I just want to say is thank you to everyone for making me a part of what is an incredible memory. All of you will remember these moments. We always say, it is not about the runs, it is not about the wickets, you never remember your career but you remember moments like this, so let’s really enjoy. I could not be more proud of you guys, to come back the way you did, the way you fought, the way we worked as a team… the resilience,” Dravid said.

Dravid also acknowledged the efforts of the support staff and the family members of the players in India’s achievements. “Today, your parents, your wives, your children, your brother, your coaches, so many people have made so many sacrifices and worked so hard with you for you to enjoy this memory in this moment... really, really proud to have been a part of this memory with you guys. I’m not usually short of words but on a day like today, for me to be part of this, I could not be more grateful for the respect, for the kindness, for the effort that each and everyone of you are shown to me, to my coaching staff to my support staff,” Dravid added. Dravid’s son, Samit Dravid is also an upcoming talent who is showing promise both in the batting as well as the bowling department of the game.
