It’s a clear and open fact that both Ravi Shastri and Virat Kohli enjoy each others company as a coach and a player. It was during Shastri’s era as the team Director of Indian cricket team when MS Dhoni retired from Test cricket, and Kohli was handed over the job.

In 2017, Ravi Shastri was back in the dressing room, this time as the Head Coach of the side. There was no doubt that he had the backing from the skipper, as the deadline to apply for the job had already gone and applications got reopened to facilitate Shastri to apply for the job.

In the end, he found himself winnings the race as well defeating likes of Virender Sehwag, Lalchand Rajput and a few others. This time as well though he appeared for the interview via Skype, which was one of the major reasons last year behind him not getting the job.

This year though, Kohli had the charge of the team and Shastri had backing from him and Sachin Tendulkar – a member of CAC – which saw him getting the job as well.

Team India has done well from the day Shastri has taken over the job. In fact, the first series that team India played under him as a full-time coach, the Men in Blue defeated Sri Lanka in nine consecutive games.

However, tough times await Indian cricket team and the success of the team on foreign tours will determine the success rate of Shastri, as the Head Coach.

Shastri, along with other coaches, had been handed the contract until 2019 World Cup.
