West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday wished U-19 India coach Rahul Dravid on his 44th birthday.

Former Indian skipper Rahul Dravid is also referred as the ‘The wall’ of Indian cricket by the fans. Dravid is often regarded as one of the best batsmen of his time and is remembered for his calm and composure temperament on and off the field.

Rahul Dravid, fondly called ‘Jammy’, is one of those rare breed of batsmen, who never made a headline for the wrong reason. He is arguably the most selfless cricketer having a spotless career. After his retirement from the international cricket, Dravid was offered the position to coach Indian cricket team, but he turned it down and chose to nurture the young cricketers instead. Now, he is the coach of Under-19 Indian cricket team.

Rahul Dravid has played 164 Test matches, 344 One Day Internationals and one T20I for India. Dravid has 48 centuries to his credit and he is among the top 10 international players who have scored maximum number of centuries in all formats of the game.
