Former India batsman VVS Laxman feels the legendary Rahul Dravid, as the head coach of a young Indian side in Sri Lanka, will have the opportunity to find and nurture 'future champions' of Indian cricket. "I think it is an opportunity for him to create the future champions for Indian cricket," Laxman said in Star Sports' show 'Game Plan'. This is an opportunity for Rahul Dravid to prove himself as a coach. The Indian side has played two intra-squad practice games to prepare for the ODI series which begins on July 13. India will play three ODIs and three T20Is in Sri Lanka, which will be their last white-ball fixtures before the T20 World Cup in October-November.
