Ravi Shastri replies to critics post sleeping photo from Ranchi Test goes viral

Ravi Shastri replies to critics: The Indian head coach didn’t seem too concerned about what people said about him online.

India head coach Ravi Shastri was once again under the scanner after a photo of him sleeping in the dressing room during the recently concluded Ranchi Test went viral across social media platforms.

While India won the match by a whopping an innings and 202 runs and the series by 3-0, Shastri was severely mocked on social media platform Twitter for not paying attention during the match. Read some of the tweets below:

Ravi Shastri replies to critics

Shastri, who usually speaks what he has to, was in his archetype mood when he answered his critics in an interview with MidDay. “Enjoy, Enjoy….I don’t care what people say. I don’t miss a single ball,” Shastri was quoted as saying.

Irrespective of Shastri getting trolled on social media, there is no hiding to the fact that the Indian team has done exceedingly well in his tenure. Other than winning an ICC event under Shastri, India have registered many bilateral series victories under Shastri.

The 57-year old would now be having eyes on the ICC T20 World Cup in Australia next year. If India win the showpiece event under captain Virat Kohli and coach Shastri, it will be a fitting reply for the latter’s critics.
