Vk1 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Lovely article. Reminds me of shastris overt boasting of defeating the hapless islanders.. comparing it with past teams records. So artificial Link to comment
diga Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Nice share.. that perspective about 9 year olds trying to bowl on 22 yards putting their bodies & future at risk is really true "There must be strict guidelines as to what a child does at an academy - what age group plays with what ball, how many yards do they bowl from, how many overs they bowl and what the coach-to-child ratio must be. I sometimes see nine-year-olds being made to bowl 22 yards which is terrible for them - in terms of the load on their bodies and the short cuts they take to get to the other end." beetle 1 Link to comment
kirkutfan Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 He (Dravid) also thinks long term. In a recent interview he alluded to the fact that we beat Australia in the u 19 World Cup in 2012. However a lot more of that Australian u 19 team went on to represent the senior team. In that sense, he argued, one could ask who really "won" the 2012 u19 World Cup?

putrevus Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Being brash is not wrong as long as you are not demeaning others.Winning under 19 world cup is great but their careers have just begun so Dravid down to earth personality works there. Shastri is managing senior team where winning is everything so he has to breed that winning culture and he is doing his way.How can anyone suggest that his methods are wrong and Dravid's methods are right.

The Dark Horse Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 After I was done playing, I did a few things – commentary, doing corporate speeches. But the thing I enjoyed the most was coaching. Commentary was nice and great, but you just don’t get a fulfillment at the end of the day. Being involved with young people, their lives gave me the most satisfaction. So, purely for selfish reasons I am doing something that gives me satisfaction. I enjoy doing it. This answers @maniac's question. However, not everyone accepts it. beetle, Sidhoni and Cricketics 1 2 Link to comment
Khota Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 (edited) This really sums it up. Dravid is nothing but a class act. But thankfully, we don’t have Shastri. Edited February 6, 2018 by Khota beetle 1 Link to comment
Khota Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Here is another interview with Dravid. This shows why he is a cut above the others. I wish Shastri was even 10th of what Dravid is. On second thought I would prefer he stays with those young kids as they cannot get a better guidance. What a man. http://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/22338413/u-19s-learn-do-things-their-own-end-succeeding-first-class Link to comment
Vilander Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 oh ohh he said this. "This time I was determined to put a process in place, not so much looking at the end result " damn.

All coaches teach the fundamentals and tell their plyers to get better and improve rather than win a tournament. If everyone is doing their job then they will end up winning. It is indeed all about process. Moreover Dravid is helping these kids in becoming better and further improving themselves. Compare and contrast this to you know who and you will realize that Dravid is a gem. Link to comment

putrevus Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Why are some people acting as if Dravid is the first Indian coach to win under 19 world cup.Dravid is great but Dravid's winning there does not necessarily mean he would be a success with senior team too. Link to comment
