Yes, he is an excellent coach. But he is good fellow than kumble who is cunning and never allowed talented tn players to be in team. bcci is controlled by dee gaaang and match fixers like dhobi only prosper. now kohli is compromised for match fixing by dee gaaang through removing and rejoining Anooshka. what ever his dravid's efforts will go in drain as matchh fixeers alone can be indian captain.

dravvid only played for himself. On the field he will only run if the run counts for him. He will only stand in the slips and not run to save any runs. How can anyone admire him? He should be removed far from Indian cricket!!!
I am a great admirer of Dravid the cricketer and rate Ponting above even SAchin for the leadership as well as purposeful batting when the team needed but, Dravid would be misfit in the role of Indian Team's Coach. IPL has made too many cricketers a Captain and Dravid is still a Gentleman. A person needs to be BIG and Bull Headed to herd the hot headed players of this generation and that's why he was successful; he was very pragmatic too.
Don't ever think these ppl will select any other regional player for this post other than a North Indian.
There used to be days wherein at least 4 to 5 players used to be from across India, especially the South. But after the great Dhoni, the king of good luck, took over Indian captaincy, it became so obvious that and he made it a point that everyone else should only watch cricket and not play!
So, I am sorry, I have little to no hope in this regard.

you analyse how many matches were lost by dhobi for match fixing then only u will understand. when dawan,raina,yuvi,bajji,jadeja rohit,and all north fellos were given continuous chances inspite of repeated failures to be in team why the same chance was not given to uthappa,aravind,aparajith,karthik,abhinav mukund,vinaykumar etc.

We got over everything of Dhoni and only then got great opportunities in the IPL with more money and more respect
I pity your side going down match by match and vanish one day
He is the last man who should be involved with Indian cricket.Who can forget how he pulled the rug under Ganguly's feet along with greg chappel to become captain & then dropped it because it had responsibility also!! He was capt. of Rajasthan Royals which had at least 6 players tainted or approach for fixing and yet pretends he is unaware of fixing!!!
