While distributing the prize money by the BCCI, the formula of half the amount to the players and half to the support staff has been decided. However, the BCCI gave an exemption to Rahul Dravid in the support staff. The players of the World Cup-winning team will get Rs 5 crore each. Rahul Dravid was also offered the same amount. But in the support staff, bowling coach Paras Mhambrey, fielding coach T. Dilip, and batting coach Vikram Rathod will get Rs 2.5 crore. Rahul Dravid is also a part of the support staff. He decided to accept the same amount as the support staff. The bonus of additional Rs 2.50 crore was rejected
Consistent Values and Actions:
Rahul Dravid wants the same amount as the support staff will get as a bonus. BCCI sources said we respect his feelings. This has been reported by Inside Sports. This is not the first time that Dravid has given priority to equality over personal interests. He had set such an example while working as the coach of the Under-19 World Cup-winning team in 2018. At that time also rejected the additional bonus and raised the issue of equal distribution among the coaching staff
