With team India now ready to take part in a three-match away T20I series versus New Zealand, the 60-year-old will be part of the English commentary panel as well, alongside the likes of Aakash Chopra, Harsha Bhogle, Murali Kartik, and Simon Doull.
Ahead of the aforementioned series, Shastri took a dig at team India head coach Rahul Dravid for skipping the New Zealand tour, and not taking the opportunity to be with the team when it might perhaps go through a transition phase.

Ravi Shastri got married on March 18, 1990 to Ritu Singh, a doctor by profession and also a trained classical dancer.
However, the duo got divorced in the year 2012, thereby marking an end to their 22 years of togetherness. The couple also have a daughter named Aleka Shastri, who happens to be their only child.
While the 60-year-old’s present relationship status is not known, the rumours had suggested that he has been secretly dating the Hindi movie actress Nimrat Kaur for the past couple of years.
However, when contacted for a confirmation of the same, Shastri replied, “Nothing to say when it is the biggest load of cow dung. Cow dung says it all”.
Kaur too, took to her social media handle to dismiss the rumours for what they were in the first place.
