India has not done something exceptional under the coaching of Rahul Dravid to date. The same has been highlighted by former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali. In the World Test Championship final, Australia had a strong lead of 296 runs after the stump of Day 3 and now they will look to dominate the Indian side on the next two days as well.
While analyzing the game of the Indian cricket team Basit Ali said that apart from Virat Kohli, Ajinkya Rahane and Ravindra Jadeja rest all the Indian players looked so tired. He also questioned Rohit Sharma for his decision of choosing to bowl first after winning the toss and feels that India can only win this match if a miracle happens.
While talking on his Youtube Channel, the former batter said,“India lost the match the moment they chose to bowl worrying about the first two hours. And the kind of bowling that was on display was just like IPL. By lunch, the Indian bowlers appeared so happy as if they’d won the match. All India can do now is hope to get them out cheaply and hope for a miracle in the fourth innings. During the 120 overs that India fielded, I could see only 2-3 players being fit – Rahane, Kohli and Jadeja. The rest looked tired.”
Basit Ali went on to criticize the former Indian batter Rahul Dravid who is serving as the head coach for India. He termed him as the poor coach.

“I am a huge Rahul Dravid fan, have always been and will remain. He is a class player, a legend. But as a coach, he is absolutely zero. You prepared turning pitches on India. Just answer me this. When India travelled to Australia, were there similar wickets? They had bouncy pitches, right? God knows what he was thinking. Jab upar wala akal baant raha tha toh pata nahi kaha pahaado ke peeche chhupe huye thhe (God knows where he was when god was distributing brains),” said Ali.
