Dinesh Karthik will prove to be an important player for the India team in the Asian Cup and T20 World Cup. However, Dinesh Karthik has commented on former coach Ravi Shastri before the start of the Asian Cup. Dinesh Karthik says that as a coach, Ravi Shastri could not tolerate the reality of the players.
The pairing of Virat Kohli and Ravi Shastri has led the Indian team to victory in many matches. However, on many occasions, both were criticized for not supporting their players in bad times. Dinesh Karthik said: “Shastri’s approach was different. He couldn’t tolerate those players who used to hit differently at net practice and hit differently in the match.
The wicket-keeper batsman further said: “Shastri didn’t support this. He knew what he wanted from the team. But he couldn’t bear the reality. He used to inspire people to keep going.
However, Ravi Shastri’s tenure as coach has been very successful. Under the coach of Ravi Shastri, the India team managed to beat Australia twice in the test series on the same ground. However, Ravi Shastri’s tenure as coach was completed after last year’s T20 World Cup. Ravi Shastri is now back in his old commentary role.
On the other hand, speaking of Dinesh Karthik, he was dropped from the India squad after his poor performance in the 2019 World Cup under Ravi Shastri’s coach. But Karthik performed amazingly in IPL this year. Dinesh Karthik managed to return to the India team after a long gap of three years and now he is in the role of finisher.
