Former captain Rahul Dravid was on Saturday appointed coach of the India A and Under-19 cricket teams after the first meeting of BCCI’s advisory committee in Kolkata but suspense continued over Ravi Shastri’s tenure as the senior team’s Director post the Bangladesh tour.

“The good news is that Rahul Dravid has agreed to coach India ‘A’ and under-19 teams in future,” BCCI Secretary Anurag Thakur said in a press conference after the committee’s meeting.

The panel — comprising retired legends Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly and VVS Laxman — met at the Cricket Association of Bengal office at the Eden Gardens
and also present was BCCI President Jagmohan Dalmiya.
