Rahul Dravid highlights India's consistent success in global tournaments. He credits this to the nation's immense cricketing talent finally being realized. Dravid noted the alignment of players, administrators, coaches, and fans.
He also praised the T20 World Cup winning team for handling immense expectations and performing under pressure. This marks a significant period for Indian cricket.
Former India captain and head coach Rahul Dravid on Sunday said the country’s vast cricketing potential is finally translating into consistent success, with a series of victories in global tournaments reflecting the immense talent long present in Indian cricket. India have enjoyed a remarkable run in ICC events, winning both of the last two men’s T20 World Cups, the women’s ODI World Cup, the men’s U-19 World Cup and the women’s U-19 T20 World Cup over the past two years. Dravid, who was honoured with the Col CK Nayudu Lifetime Achievement Award at the annual awards function of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, spoke about the team’s success in an interaction with Star Sports.
“It just kind of feels right, right? "Almost everything coming together at this point of time where Indian cricket has always had great potential and it's (about) realising that potential on the field as well. Off the field, I think we've always had everything we needed and on the field, it's been great to see that potential being realised.
" Dravid said the sustained success is the result of several elements aligning, from players and administrators to coaches and fans. “It's been phenomenal. It's just been amazing to see the way Indian cricket has grown over these three decades,” he said while reflecting on the journey since making his international debut in 1996.
