5 Rahul Dravid videos that'll make you smile

Indian men's cricket team head coach Rahul Dravid is celebrating his 50th birthday today. The Wall of Indian cricket was born on January 11, 1973. He had a memorable career as a cricketer, where he played some excellent knocks for the Indian team.

It was a difficult job for any bowler to dismiss Rahul Dravid because he had a solid defensive technique. Dravid owns the world record for facing the highest number of balls in Test cricket and also spending the most number of hours while batting in the middle in red-ball cricket.

As far as his numbers in international cricket are concerned, Rahul Dravid played 164 Test matches, aggregating 13,288 runs at an average of 52.31. He scored 10,889 runs in 318 ODI innings, while also scoring a quickfire 31 in his only T20I appearance for the country.

Dravid was famous for his defensive approach. Another trait that made him so popular was his calmness. Almost every cricketer wants to be calm and collected like the current Indian head coach.

While being very calm and composed, Dravid also has a good sense of humor which has been on display a few times. In this listicle, we will look at five such videos of the Indian team's head coach that will make you smile.

Being the Indian team's head coach, Dravid regularly attends press conferences. During an interaction with the media, the head coach discussed the bowling attacks of India and Pakistan. He wanted to use a particular word for Pakistan's fast bowling but hilariously refrained from using it.
