Virat Kohli Took A Smart Decision To Relinquish Captaincy: Ravi Shastri

Former India coach Ravi Shastri thinks Virat Kohli has taken a "smart decision" by giving up captaincy from all forms of cricket, paving the way to express himself better in the upcoming Indian Premier League. Shastri, who witnessed Kohli's leadership from close quarters during his stint as India coach, however, also feels the 33-year-old star batter could have continued as the captain in Test cricket. "I think this (giving up captaincy) could be a blessing in disguise, to be honest. The pressures of captaincy off his shoulders, the expectations that come with being captain no longer there, he can go out, express himself, play freely, and I think he'll look to do just that," Shastri said.

IPL 2022: Ravi Shastri Explains Why Hardik Pandya Won't Make India Squad As Pure Batter

When Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 kicks off, one player who will have the spotlight on him is Hardik Pandya. The younger Pandya brother is set to play the role of captain for the first time this season, when he leads new IPL franchise Gujarat Titans (GT). But the focus will also be on whether he will bowl or not. While originally an all-rounder, fitness issues have seen him reduced to playing majorly as just a batter over the last few years.

Ravi Shastri says India need an all-rounder at No. 6, rules out Hardik Pandya as pure batter

Ravi Shastri feels the team needs a first-choice all-rounder at number six, ruling out Hardik Pandya's inclusion as a pure batter in the T20 World Cup in Australia. Hardik has not been able to go full throttle with the ball since returning from surgery to treat an injured back. With the upcoming T20 World Cup providing India an opportunity to make amends for their league-stage exit in the last edition of the showpiece in the UAE, the team management will be keenly looking at the IPL for players who can fit into the number six slot as an all-rounder and lend more balance to the XI.

Indian Premier League One Of The Greatest "Physios", Gets Everyone Fit Before Auction, Says Ravi Shastri

Former India head coach Ravi Shastri on Tuesday said the IPL acts as one of the world's greatest physiotherapists, with its ability to get the injured players fit in time for the league. In his own inimitable way, Shastri said what many within the cricket fraternity, and outside of it, feel. "IPL is one of the greatest leagues in the world, and it's also one of the greatest physios in the world, because, before the IPL auction everyone wants to get fit, because everyone wants to play in the IPL," Shastri said during a press conference organised by Star Sports, the official broadcaster of IPL 2022.

IPL can be platform to showcase Rohit Sharma's successor as Team India captain: Ravi Shastri

Hardik's form, fast bowlers' pool key focus areas, feels former India coachNEW DELHI: The IPL is around the corner and from India's perspective, skipper Rohit Sharma and head coach Rahul Dravid will look to plug in the gaps before the T20 World Cup in Australia. Ex-India coach Ravi Shastri, who will be back in the commentary box during this season's IPL, is waiting to see the form of allrounder Hardik Pandya. Due to a lower-back injury, Pandya is yet to play any competitive match post last year's T20 World Cup in the UAE. He will captain the Gujarat Titans team. "The whole country will be very closely watching Hardik Pandya in the IPL. We all know what he is capable of," Shastri said on Tuesday during a press conference. "Rohit (Sharma) and Rahul (Dravid) would love to see how he performs. If he can bring all three aspects of his game to the fore, then it is going to be outstanding. It will be fantastic from India's point of view."

Stupid clause: Ravi Shastri on not being able to do commentary during India coaching job

Ravi Shastri on Tuesday termed the BCCI's conflict of interest clause, which prevented him from doing IPL commentary while he was with the national team, "stupid". However, having relinquished the national team coaching job, Shastri is returning commentary in the Indian Premier League (IPL) after a long gap. "This is the 15th edition of the IPL, I did the first 11 years and then thanks to some stupid conflict of interest clause that exists in some stupid constitution that binds us, you could not do the last few seasons," said Shastri in a press conference organised by Star Sports, the official broadcaster of IPL 2022.

Asked about his expectations from Rahul, Gambhir was very categorical in what he wants from his skipper.
