Rahul Dravid and Rohit Sharma Speak at First PC After Being Made Indian Coach and T20I Captain
- 2 years ago
India head coach Rahul Dravid believes that workload management is an important aspect of cricket, a challenge which he feels every cricketing nation is recognising. He firmly emphasised on workload management to keep players fit and fresh ahead of big tournaments.
Dravid's first assignment as the head coach is the three-match T20I series against New Zealand, starting from Wednesday.
"Workload management is an important aspect of cricket, given the amount of cricket we are playing. We see that in football as well, when big players don't play every match in long seasons. If we play all around the year, we have to manage their workload, be it be inside the team or by giving them a break. The mental and physical well-being of players will be a big priority," said Dravid in the pre-match press conference on Tuesday.
