Rahul Dravid has picked 'Australian brains' and replicated it in India to nurture young players: Greg Chappell

Former Australia cricketer Greg Chappell has stated that batting great Rahul Dravid picked "Australian brains" and replicated the style and system in India to nurture young talents. Notably, Greg Chappell was once the coach of Indian cricket team.

Greg Chappell, the former Australia cricketer and coach of the Indian cricket team from 2005 to 2007, has stated that Rahul Dravid, the former India captain and current head of NCA, picked up "Australian brains" and replicated their style in India to groom young talents and turn them into match-winners. Notably, Rahul Dravid was India captain in Chappell's tenure after Sourav Ganguly was sacked and dropped from the team following rifts with the Australian. The 72-year-old, whose very controversial tenure with Team India came to an end after an early exit from World Cup 2007, added that both India and England have taken away Australia's bragging rights of calling themselves the best at talent identification.
