Wasim Jaffer is always known for his hilarious tweets. Former Mumbai man, once again came up with a cheeky tweet, linking the announcement to Shardul Thakur’s birthday.

Till yesterday news reports were saying Rahul Dravid was going to stay at the NCA. Yet early morning news broke of him becoming India coach. So what happened around midnight? My best guess is Lord Shardul blew candles on his birthday cake wishing to be coached by Rahul bhai 😊

Here are some of the top reactions on twitter.

I’m delighted to see Rahul Dravid as the Indian men’s coach. But give @RaviShastriOfc credit for helping build a formidable side across all 3 formats. And the incredible fight backs at the Gabba and the Oval were on his watch!
