Rahul Dravid: Along with the T20 World Cup 2024, the tenure of Team India's head coach Rahul Dravid also ended. Now former Indian batsman Gautam Gambhir has been appointed as the new head coach in his place. Meanwhile, Rahul Dravid has won everyone's heart by presenting an example of his generosity. He turned down the offer of crores of rupees from BCCI and showed why he is called the gentleman of Indian cricket.

Rahul Dravid won hearts

In fact, the Board of Control for Cricket in India announced a prize money of Rs 125 crore for Team India winning the T20 World Cup 2024. Out of this, head coach Rahul Dravid was to get Rs 5 crore. At the same time, it was decided to give Rs 2.5 crore to the other coaches of the team. But Rahul showed his generosity and decided that he would also take Rs 2.5 crore like other coaches. With this decision, he has told that the respect of his teammates is more important to him than money.

I have won hearts before

Let us tell you that this is not the first time that Rahul Dravid has won the hearts of fans with his work. He has done many such feats before as well. In 2018, India won the Under-19 World Cup title under the guidance of Rahul Dravid. At that time also, BCCI had announced to give Rs 50 lakh as a reward to Dravid. At the same time, other members of the support staff were to get Rs 20 lakh each. But Dravid protested against this discrimination, after which BCCI had to change its distribution amount and each member of the support staff including Dravid was given Rs 25 lakh.
