wife, Ritika Sajdeh, Rohit Sharma's wife, posted a heartfelt farewell to Rahul Dravid who stepped down as the head coach for Team India last week.

Dravid's departure marks the end of a historic era in Indian cricket, defined by their second T20 World Cup win and the end of an 11-year ICC Trophy drought.

Days after India's triumph, Rohit paid tribute to Dravid in a special Instagram post. In his message, he fondly referred to Dravid as his 'work wife', a term Ritika had used for the coach.

Ritika's response to the post reflected the deep bond their family had formed with Dravid. She expressed how much they would miss him, particularly their daughter Samaira.
