About Rahul Dravid
Rahul Dravid is known to Indian fans as “The Wall” and “Mr Dependable”, nicknames that sum up his career as one of the finest batsmen in the history of the game. Born in 1973 and closely associated with Karnataka and Bengaluru, he later became one of India’s most respected coaches. Few public figures are as admired for calm judgement, discipline and decency, which is why his name carries real weight with brands that value trust.
Career highlights
Rahul scored 24,177 runs in international cricket. He holds the records for the most balls faced and the longest time spent batting in Test cricket, and he was the first player to score a Test century in all ten Test-playing countries of his era. He was part of the team that shared the 2002 ICC Champions Trophy, was a Wisden Cricketer of the Year in 2000, and won both the Player of the Year and Test Player of the Year awards at the first ICC Awards in 2004. In 2011 he became the first non-Australian to deliver the Bradman Oration.
After retiring, he shaped the next generation as head of cricket at the National Cricket Academy and coach of India’s Under-19 and India A sides, guiding the Under-19 team to the 2018 World Cup title. As head coach of the senior men’s team, he led India to victory at the 2024 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup.
