After Ravi Shastri failed to win India the T20 World Cup in 2021, Rahul Dravid was immediately appointed as the head coach, and the management was also changed. The captaincy was also handed over to Rohit Sharma in the white-ball formats. The ideology of Rohit and Rahul was to bring in a new template of cricket. A template that was also followed by the very successful England cricket team. It can be something similar to “Bazzball”.
