6 possible Indian replacements for Anil Kumble as the head coach of the Indian cricket team

#1 Rahul Dravid

Rahul Dravid has been the coach of the Delhi Daredevils in the IPL for the past two seasons

‘The Wall’ of Indian Cricket is unarguably one of the best candidates to take up the mantle from Anil Kumble. He has scored over 24,000 runs in international cricket which includes 48 centuries and 146 half-centuries. Many former bowling greats like Brett Lee, Alan Donald and others have hailed him as one of the toughest batsmen that they bowled to during their playing days.

After retiring as a player, Dravid took the responsibility of coaching the Indian U-19 team and also successfully guided them to the final of the ICC U19 World Cup in 2016. Moreover, he has also been the coach of the IPL franchises – the Rajasthan Royals and the Delhi Daredevils where he has been responsible for the development of many young Indian players like Sanju Samson, Rishabh Pant and Karun Nair among others.
