Dravid though remained effusive in praise of his captaincy credentials, but more excited at the prospect of welcoming back their premier seam-bowling all-rounder. "At this point in time, from our [team's] perspective it's really about Hardik starting to bowl again.We know what kind of depth that brings to our side. That Hardik was going to immediately re-enter India's white-ball calculations almost as soon as he resumed bowling full throttle was never under question. But in IPL 2022, Hardik the seam-bowling allrounder was a vital cog in Titans' success after they'd been written off early. He's been picked to bat in a similar position and whether he can replicate that for India as well," said Dravid.
