Rahul Dravid's first assignment after India head coach role is all but confirmed with The Wall and he is set to return to the Indian Premier League.

Dravid tenure as coach Indian cricket team coach has ended on the highest of highs - a World Cup win - is likely to link up with a team which paved the way for his coaching career. A report carried out by the Times of India claims that Dravid's association with Rajasthan Royals as their head coach is a done deal and that the official announcement is coming up shortly.

"Talks are going on between RR and Dravid, an announcement in his regard is round the corner," TOI quoted a source as saying. HT could not individually verify the development.

In between, a report in News18 Bangla had claimed that Dravid could be on his way to Kolkata Knight Riders - a direct swap given how the BCCI appointed former KKR mentor Gautam Gambhir as the new head coach of the Indian team. But while that report lacked any concrete information, Dravid's move to RR makes more sense as he has a history with them. It was at RR where Dravid mentored for two years and then went on to do the same with the Indian team during its tour of England in 2014.
