Since finishing his time as head coach of the Indian team, Dravid has been linked with several IPL teams.</p><h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Rumors of Kolkata Knight Riders role</strong></h3><p>There were rumors that Dravid might join Kolkata Knight Riders after their mentor Gautam Gambhir, left to take Dravid’s former role with the Indian team. However, recent reports suggest Dravid is now in talks with Rajasthan Royals, his old IPL team.</p><p>While Dravid seeks a new challenge, Gambhir has already started his journey as India’s head coach, heading to Sri Lanka with the team. Before leaving, Gambhir acknowledged the big shoes he had to fill after Dravid’s successful tenure.</p><h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Talks with Rajasthan Royals</strong></h3><figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Rahul Dravid is likely to return as the Head coach of Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2025.

Given his talent and vast experience, it’s no surprise that IPL teams are eager to have him.</p><p>Dravid chose not to continue as India’s head coach because he didn’t want to spend 10 months a year traveling and away from his family. The IPL, however is different. It only requires a 2-3 month commitment, which Dravid might find appealing.</p><h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Dravid’s IPL experience</strong></h3><p>Dravid has previously worked as a mentor and coach for IPL teams. He was the coach of Delhi Daredevils until 2017 when he left due to a ‘conflict of interest.’ Since then, he has coached India’s junior teams and was the head of the National Cricket Academy before taking the India job in 2021.</p><p>Now in talks with Rajasthan Royals, it will be interesting to see what role Dravid might take on with the team.</p>]]></content:encoded>
