India's 2002 Champions Trophy squad: Where are they now?

Rahul Dravid, also known as the wall of Indian cricket was one of the best Test batsmen India has ever seen. He did not have too much to boast about in the shorter format of the game as he came to bat lower down the order.

He did manage to score 120 runs in 2 innings in the tournament back in 2002 at an average of 60 with two half-centuries to his name. His ODI career was pretty much over after India’s disastrous 2007 campaign but continued to play a huge role in the Test side until his retirement.

He is currently the head coach of the Indian U-19 side and India A side as well. Under his guidance, the Indian U-19 side reached the final of the 2016 World Cup.

Yuvraj Singh came into the tournament after making name for himself in the historic Natwest Series final win against England. He had slowly started establishing himself as the perfect middle order batsman for the Men in Blue.

He managed to bat in only 2 innings throughout the tournament and scored 65 runs with one half-century to his name.He proved on to play many match winning knocks for India and was the man of the tournament in India’s 2011 world cup win.

He is the only one of three cricketers from the 2002 squad to continue to actively play international cricket and the only one to be included in India’s squad for the 2017 Champions Trophy. He also plays for the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL.

Mohammed Kaif came into the tournament after taking India to the historic win against England in the Natwest Series final in 2002.

Just like his partner in crime Yuvraj, Kaif managed to bat in only 2 innings in the 2002 Champions Trophy and managed to score a match-winning century as well.

Kaif did not have a long career with the Men in Blue as his inconsistent performances led to him being dropped from the side shortly after the World Cup. He continues to play cricket to date and is the captain of the Chattisgarh state team.
