Former Indian Cricket Team coach Rahul Dravid's decision puts BCCI in a spot

Once again the great wall has shown why he's loved by all... The former Indian cricket team head coach has refused to take home an additional 2.5 crore rupees allocated to him by the BCCI following India's T20 World Cup triumph.

The Indian Cricket governing body had allocated a total of 125 crore rupees with the 15 players and the head coach to receive rupees 5 crore each while the support staff were to receive rupees 2.5 crore each.

According to Hindustan Times, Dravid has requested that his allocation to be the same as that of his coaching staff. This isn't the first time the Dravid has done such an act. During his tenure as head coach of the Under-19 world cup winning Indian team, he refused the formula that would see him receive 50 lakh rupees while his support staff would get 20 lakhs each. Instead, a revised formula was devised which ensured every member of the coaching staff including Dravid receive 25 lakh rupees instead.
