Rahul Dravid
Rahul Dravid took over an India team in chaos. Sourav Ganguly did not play, Zaheer Khan has been injured and Ashish Nehra remains out with injuries.

Nassau County International Cricket Stadium will serve as one of the venues for the 2024 ICC Men’s Twenty20 World Cup tournament in New York. Located within Eisenhower Park on Long Island and designed to seat 34,000 spectators through 40 rows of temporary seating, the temporary stadium also provides VIP seating, operations offices, media/broadcast areas, as well as players’ locker rooms.
India head coach Ravi Shastri expressed concern over the condition of the ground, noting it as being “soft and spongy”, with potential injury risks such as hamstring strain and calves strains for his players. Yet, he praised their performance against Bangladesh as part of warm up match practice.
Rahul Dravid was one of the greatest batsmen in cricket history, possessing an unparalleled repertoire and unique style of play. A legendary leader with superb leadership qualities in both tests and ODIs. An equally superb defensive player who often served as an anchor of an innings.
Over his 15-year Test career, he amassed more than 4000 runs, becoming India’s most prolific run scorer. Additionally, he won two Cricketer of the Year awards and his most notable innings was one against Sri Lanka bowlers in 1999 when he scored an astonishing 148 off just 129 balls to showcase his power and brilliance.
Rahul Dravid India vs Bangladesh Warm-Up Match
Rahul Dravid rarely loses his cool under intense media scrutiny; he’s become adept at dealing with it. His steady demeanor at the crease and risk-averse style have given some the impression that he is impregnable, yet closer scrutiny reveals major weaknesses in his defense.
Sambit Bal sat down with Dravid for an in-depth interview about the forthcoming Twenty20 World Cup warm-up match against Bangladesh where Dravid will aim to show that he can strike cleanly under any condition. Sambit began by asking what attributes were essential in being an effective batsman; Dravid listed balance as his top priority.
After being exiled from one-day cricket and trying to balance family life with cricket career, Dravid has learned the art of maintaining equilibrium. He excels at not being drawn into heated exchanges with bowlers and prioritising deeds over headline-making mind games or on-field insults.
India will look to avoid distractions and focus solely on their task when taking on Bangladesh at Nassau County in New York. Bangladesh have recently endured an embarrassing 1-2 series loss against tournament co-host USA, so Najmul Hossain Shanto will hope his side can quickly turn things around.

Rahul Dravid was one of India’s greatest batsmen and one of its most influential. Known for his sound technique and caring about bowlers, Dravid was unafraid of making changes when necessary – seemingly on an impromptu basis; these changes were actually strategic moves with long-term implications.
His decisions weren’t always well received by fans, yet he was an exceptional professional who didn’t let public cynicism deter him. He took risks by giving the captaincy to another player even for one game – something which showed his trust and ability as leader.
