Ravi Shastri Should Be Removed As Head Coach, Says Chetan Chauhan

Written by Abhishek Patil

Team India head coach Ravi Shastri has been in the eye of the storm since Virat Kohli-led India suffered a 1-4 drubbing at the hands of England in the recently-concluded five-match Test series. Like many former players and fans, Test cricketer Chetan Chauhan also held Ravi Shastri responsible for the 4-1 debacle and said the former captain should be removed before Australia tour in November.

“Ravi Shastri should be removed as head coach before the Australia tour. Ravi Shastri is very good cricket commentator and he should be allowed to do so,” Chauhan said.

“Team India should have performed better. Both the teams were evenly matched. But the Indian team failed to check tail enders of England,” Chauhan said.

Commenting on India’s chances in the ongoing Asia Cup cricket championship in Dubai, Chauhan, who has played 40 Test matches and scored 2,084 runs between1969 and 1981, said a better result is expected as the team is balanced with experienced and young players.
