IND vs ENG: Virat Kohli, who has scored 70 centuries in international cricket, has created new scales of success for himself. Virat’s fans do not accept anything less than a century. This is the reason that despite having a better average than many batsmen in the world, the last two years are considered bad for Virat.
However, Team India coach Rahul Dravid has a different opinion in this matter. Dravid has said that it is not necessary for Virat to score a century, it is necessary for him to play match-winning innings.

Rahul Dravid, “An innings of 79 runs in Africa is also brilliant” :-
Dravid said that it is not always necessary to score a century. The innings of 79 runs in difficult conditions in Cape Town was also brilliant. Virat Kohli couldn’t convert it into a century, but it was a good score.
Fans do not approve anything less than Virat’s century :-
Dravid said, “In terms of the scale that Virat has set for himself, people do not accept anything less than a century from him, but from a coach’s point of view, we want to see match-winning innings from him. Be it 50 or 60 runs. Why not to be.”
IND vs ENG: Rahul Dadravid, “There is amazing fitness inside Virat” :-
Talking about Virat’s age, Dravid said that he is at the right age and he has amazing fitness. Virat Kohli is the most hardworking person I have met so far.
They prepare brilliantly. The way he batted at Leicester, he played carefully against his bowlers. Batted against Bumrah. He is doing everything right and doing everything that is necessary to come out of this phase.
It is not good to have six captains in seven months :-
Dravid became the coach of the Indian team for the first time on the Sri Lanka tour and Shikhar Dhawan was the captain of the team at that time. After this Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya and now Jasprit Bumrah will captain India.
To this Dravid said that when he took this responsibility, he also did not think that so many players would captain India, but in today’s time it can happen. Injuries of some players, which happened to Rahul and because of Kovid, such situations are being created.
IND vs ENG: Cheteshwar Pujara Pujara can start the innings :-
Dravid also indicated that Cheteshwar Pujara could open the innings for India in the Test against England. He said that if needed, the innings can be started from the number three player. However, Mayank Agarwal has already been associated with Team India and he is almost certain to replace Rohit.
