Chennai: Former captain Rahul Dravid on Tuesday welcomed the appointment of Duncan Fletcher as the new coach of the Indian cricket team, saying he is eager to interact with him.

“He (Fletcher) comes with a great record of coaching international teams. So I am eager to catch up with him when I get the opportunity.

“I haven’t had the chance to interact one-on-one with him. Hopefully, I will soon have a conversation with him and see what his thoughts are and how we can take it forward,” said Dravid, who is playing for Rajasthan Royals in IPL-IV.
