Two distinct Indian cricket teams will play in two different parts of the world at the same time for the first time in history. While Virat Kohli leads the team in a five-match Test series against hosts England, Shikhar Dhawan leads the limited-overs team in three ODIs and as many T20Is in Sri Lanka. In addition, because Ravi Shastri is in England, the BCCI has chosen Rahul Dravid as the interim coach for the Sri Lanka tour. let’s discuss Who Can Replace Ravi Shastri.

Dravid, who is regarded as one of the best batters of all time, has had a fantastic career as a coach. The former Indian captain trained several talented players who went on to create a name for themselves at the highest level during his time with India Under-19 and India A. Many people believe that Dravid should have been the national team’s head coach in the first place, rather than Shastri.

His hiring as interim coach, on the other hand, maybe a sign of things to come. Reetinder Singh Sodhi, a former Indian cricketer, believes so. Shastri’s current contract with the BCCI will expire after the ICC T20 World Cup, which will be held later this year. Sodhi concluded that after the gala tournament, Dravid is unquestionably in line to replace Shastri.

“First of all, we have to acknowledge that Ravi Shastri has done a great job as a coach. And yes, his contract is coming to an end. But let’s think about it… a temporary arrangement and that too Rahul Dravid?” Sodhi told in an Interview.

“I think it’s virtually impossible. If he is going to Sri Lanka as the head coach, somewhere it’s a clear indication that he is in line. If there’s anyone that can replace Ravi Shastri as coach, that person in Rahul Dravid,” he added.

Furthermore, Shastri, who has been in the lead since 2017, has done an excellent job during his time. Under his leadership, Team India defeated Australia twice in the Test series in Australia and advanced to the 2019 World Cup semi-final and WTC final, but lost both knockout games against New Zealand. As a result, it will be interesting to see whether his contract is renewed or whether Sodhi’s predictions come true.
