Yashasvi Jaiswal hails Rahul Dravid’s humility, says there is a lot to learn from RR’s head coach

Rajasthan Royals batter Yashasvi Jaiswal praised head coach Rahul Dravid for his humility off the field. Dravid is known for his gentlemanly behavior and has been getting the best out of the young players as a coach in the last decade.

Jaiswal also played under Dravid’s tutelage when the former Indian captain was serving as India’s head coach. The RR opener said there is a lot to learn from Dravid for the way he conducts himself off the field.

The left-hander said the 52-year-old is always supportive and caring for the players.

“He is supportive, caring, and always looking out for everyone. He instills confidence in players, reassures them they’re on the right path, and offers guidance that’s essential for growth—both individually and as a team. He is an incredible human being. Having someone like Rahul Dravid Sir in this era is a privilege,” Jaiswal told JioHotstar.

“Watching him up close is a learning experience. His grace, composure, and humility are qualities that truly inspire. There’s so much more to learn from how he conducts himself off the field,” the southpaw said.

Meanwhile, Dravid is carrying an injury and has been serving his head role on a wheelchair. Dravid returned as RR’s head coach after nine long years.

“I am pleased to be returning to the franchise I have called ‘home’ for a number of years in the past. After the World Cup, I feel it’s the ideal time for me to take on another challenge, and the Royals is the perfect place to do that. A lot of hard work and deliberations from Manoj, Jake, Kumar and the team has gone into the progression that the franchise has made over the past few years,” Dravid said in a statement released by RR.

RR has won two and has lost as many in four matches of IPL 2025.
