Rahul Dravid rejected a blank cheque for Rajasthan Royals, other teams were ready to pay crores

Rahul Dravid, who won the T20 World Cup as a coach for Team India, has now entered the IPL. This legendary player has now become the head coach of Rajasthan Royals. There are reports that many teams had tried to rope in Rahul Dravid. He was even given a blank check but despite this, Rahul Dravid chose Rajasthan Royals. According to media reports, there is a very special reason behind Rahul Dravid's decision. It has been claimed that Rahul Dravid joined Rajasthan Royals because this team had bet on him 13 years ago.

It was the year 2011 when Rahul Dravid was a part of RCB. Rahul Dravid's IPL career was not that impressive. He was able to score only 371 runs in 2008 and 271 runs in 2009. After this, RCB decided not to include him in the team. When Dravid's name came up in the IPL auction, RCB did not bid on him, and after this Rajasthan Royals included this player in their team. Rahul Dravid's honour was at stake in that bid and Rajasthan added him to their team. Dravid scored 343 runs in the first season for Rajasthan and then after retiring from international cricket, this player took over the captaincy of Rajasthan in the year 2012. That season Dravid scored 462 runs. In 2013, the team reached the playoffs under Dravid's captaincy, during this too he contributed 471 runs.

All eyes are on Rahul Dravid once again. Once again Rajasthan Royals have placed their bets on Dravid. Team India became the T20 World Champion under Dravid's coaching and after 17 years it became the T20 champion. Now Rajasthan's team would also like Rahul Dravid to end its title drought. Rajasthan's team won the first season of IPL. In 2008, this team became the champion under the captaincy of Shane Warne. Since then Rajasthan's performance has been average. Now it remains to be seen how Rahul Dravid raises the performance of this team.
