Team India is set to face the defending champions England in the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup 2024 on Thursday in Guyana. Rohit Sharma’s side is still unbeaten in the tournament and will now be trying to avenge their defeat against England in the semi-final of the T20 World Cup 2022.
Clinching this World Cup title will be special moment for India as they will not only end their 11-year ICC trophy drought but also give a special parting gift to their head coach Rahul Dravid. The former Indian batsman is all set to end his coaching duties after the conclusion of the ongoing World Cup. During his playing days, he immensely contributed to India’s success, the only thing which remained elusive from his tally was an ICC title.
Recently, former India batsman, Virender Sehwag stated that Rohit and co should win the ongoing T20 World Cup for their coach, just like the team did in 2011 for the legendary Sachin Tendulkar.
“We played the 2011 World Cup for Sachin Tendulkar. So, this T20 World Cup can be for Rahul Dravid. At least as a coach he gets to win the World Cup and get the badge of being a World Cup winner, which he didn’t get as a player,” Sehwag told Cricbuzz.
