BCCI offers Rahul Dravid a contract extension as Team India head coach

Contrary to reports that BCCI is keen on having a new head coach for the Indian men's cricket team, the Board has reportedly offered Rahul Dravid a contract extension.

According to ESPNcricinfo, Dravid was approached by the BCCI last week, with the tenure of the extension being open-ended. However, it isn't confirmed if Dravid has accepted the offer or not.

The report added that one crucial reason the BCCI was keen on sticking with Dravid was to ensure continuity to the structure he had put in place over the past two years, which might have otherwise got disrupted had a new head coach been appointed.

But if Dravid does take up the offer, his first assignment in his second stint will be India's tour of South Africa. The tour starts with 3 T20Is and as many ODIs, followed by a 2-match Test series.

Dravid's contract as Team India head coach expired after the World Cup final loss and it remains to be seen whether he continues or some other head coach is appointed.
