Rahul Dravid: Indian cricket team head Rahul Dravid will soon say goodbye to Team India. Rahul Dravid's tenure as Team India's head coach will end after the T20 World Cup. In such a situation, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) can appoint former Indian cricket team opener Gautam Gambhir as the new head coach of Team India. In such a situation, if Gautam Gambhir is appointed as the coach of Team India, then two players of Team India can be dropped from the team, whom Rahul Dravid always saved from being out of the team.

Because of Rahul Dravid, these players had a place in the team

Team India's head coach Rahul Dravid got along well with captain Rohit Sharma and former captain Virat Kohli.

Along with this, Rahul Dravid wanted to see both these players in all three formats of the team. In such a situation, whenever there was talk of forming a new team in T20I, Rahul Dravid was seen standing with Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. In such a situation, no one could exclude them from the team. Be it the chief selector or anyone else.
However, with the conclusion of T20 World Cup 2024, Rahul Dravid's farewell is certain. In such a situation, it is difficult for Team India's senior players Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli to get a place in T20I.

Rohit and Kohli will be dropped from T20I as soon as Gautam Gambhir becomes the head coach

If after the T20 World Cup, BCCI hands over the responsibility of Team India's head coach to Kolkata Knight Riders mentor Gautam Gambhir in the Indian Premier League, then captain Rohit Sharma and former captain Virat Kohli are sure to be out of Team India's T20I squad.

Gautam Gambhir has already said in an interview that we need to make separate teams for all three formats. In such a situation, if Gautam Gambhir takes over as the head coach of Team India, then Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli can be dropped from the T20 team and new players will be given a chance in their place.
