In the latest turn of events, the Mumbai Indians, five-time champions of the IPL, are considering replacing Mark Boucher with Rahul Dravid as head coach for the 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL).

Rahul Dravid’s tenure as the head coach of the Indian cricket team recently came to an end after India won the T20 World Cup 2024 in the Caribbean, ending their long ICC trophy drought.

According to a report by Cricbuzz, Rahul Dravid is in massive demand among IPL franchises, and the Mumbai Indians are one of those franchises showing a lot of interest in him. 

“Rahul Dravid is being pursued by multiple franchises and there is a lot of attention on the Mumbai Indians – vis-a-vis Mark Boucher,” Cricbuzz reported.

Under the coaching of Mark Boucher, the Mumbai Indians ended at the bottom of the points table in the IPL 2024. Now the team is reportedly looking to move past him.
