Rahul Dravid's absence from the new Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) committee comprising of former cricketers Sourav Ganguly, Sachin Tendulkar and VVS Laxman raised a few eyebrows — but it seems that the Board has a more hands-on role waiting for the former India captain.

An ESPNCricinfo report says that Dravid could take over as coach of India U-19 and 'A' teams — and this is not surprising considering he has mentored young players with fair success in the Indian Premier League.
