The 39-year-old claimed suggestions of a rift in the camp were simply the result of losing the opening two Tests against Australia.
?When you lose 2-0, that?s part and parcel of what happens, suddenly everything is wrong,? Dravid said.
?So there?s absolutely no truth to those matters.?
The veteran insisted team morale was good, saying external distractions like Sunil Gavaskar?s recent criticism of a go-karting trip to Perth and Australia wicketkeeper Brad Haddin branding them ?mentally fragile? would not distract them.
?One of the good things about touring abroad is you?re in a bit of a cocoon,? said Dravid when asked about the response in India to the team going go-karting.
?You don?t tend to know what?s happening back home, you can never really gauge the feelings of what?s happening back home. You?re a bit away from all of it, so in a way it?s good.
?I think the spirit in the team has been good. The enthusiasm to practise, and the overall energy around the squad, has been good. There is a sense of disappointment in the results we?ve had so far, and we?d like to do better.
?(There are also) a lot of conversations that happen in the course of dressing rooms, in the course of dinners, in the course of when we go go-karting.
?So lots of conversations can happen in times like that, that are very useful. You don?t learn through sitting in meetings and having power-point presentations, that?s not how teams work.?
