Former India opener Gambhir began his coaching tenure with the tour of Sri Lanka in July-August.
âHe (Gambhir) has got a lot of experience, as a player also he has played a lot, he obviously coached quite a bit. I am sure he will be great,â said Dravid, who coached India to the T20 World Cup title in June, on the sidelines of an event in New Delhi.
âIn any situation everyone brings his own experience and knowledge to the table. I am sure the team will benefit from everything that Gautam brings to them with his team,â he added.
Under Dravid, the Indian team also reached the final of ODI World Cup and World Test Championship. India begins its Test season under Gambhir on Thursday. The team will be playing ten test matches over the next four months including two against Bangladesh, three against New Zealand before travelling to Australia for a five-match series.
