Team India’s batting coach Vikram Rathour has refuted media reports that head coach Rahul Dravid is suffering from health issues.
He said that the batting legend, who recently celebrated his 50th birthday, is fine and is with the squad in Thiruvananthapuram for the third ODI against Sri Lanka.
Earlier, it was reported that Dravid was down with health complications and flow to Bengaluru to be with his family.
It was also said that he suffered from BP issues during the second ODI between India and Sri Lanka at Eden Gardens.
A picture of him onboard a flight in which he seemingly appeared unwell went viral.
“He is fine and I don’t know from where that news circulated. You want him to take some rounds of the ground. We can arrange some fitness test for Rahul Dravid also. He is with the team for the third ODI,” Vikram told media.
Team India has already won the series after beating the rivals in the first two games.
“We are still working on improvement in several areas. It is a World Cup area and we want to give our best.”
