Team India’s Head Coach Rahul Dravid was amazed when asked about chief selector Chetan Sharma’s response on the Rishabh Pant vs Dinesh Karthik.

Rahul Dravid couldn’t control his laughter and was happy with the fact that the chief selector is so confident about the team.

Rahul Dravid’s hilarious reaction on Chetan Sharma’s bold statement

Rahul Dravid addressed the press conference ahead of the India-Bangladesh match in Adelaide and was asked about his views on chief selector Chetan Sharma’s ‘We will win the World Cup’ statement.

Dravid, at first, couldn’t control his laughter and then said while addressing the press conference,”I haven’t heard what he said but I’m glad that he’s confident. We need to play well to win the World Cup. We’ve started well. A little bit of a disappointing game in Perth (vs South Africa). We fought really well. A little bit of luck here and there (things could have been different. We’ve made a few mistakes as well. It’s really a question of winning the next four games to win the World Cup.”

The selection committee met for the selection of India’s squad for the New Zealand and Bangladesh series. After announcing the squads Chetan Sharma addressed the press conference and was asked whether Rishabh Pant should be included in the playing XI in place of Dinesh Karthik.

In response to this question, the chief selector came up with a bold statement as he said, “Tournament k andar selection committee ko koi comment nahi karna chahie. (I shouldn’t comment on selection during a tournament) That is the call of the captain, coach and team management. After the World Cup, when we sit and discuss, I will definitely comment on that. It will be wrong for me to say anything in the middle of the tournament. I’m with the team. I’m watching. We are performing brilliantly and we will win the World Cup.”
