India coach Rahul Dravid is to stand down when his contract expires after the T20 World Cup.

Dravid says he will not reapply for the position after it was advertised by governing body, the BCCI, last month.

The 51-year-old succeeded Ravi Shastri in 2021 and led India to the World Test Championship and 50-over World Cup finals last year, losing to Australia on both occasions.

Dravid says unfortunately, the kind of schedules and where he finds himself at this stage in his life, he does not think he will be able to reapply.

He add he loves doing the job and he has really enjoyed coaching India.
