After Party Shastri

[Deleted_User_1]

Seriously I cannot fathom why Kohli works with him. He does not need a yes man. He needs a coach who can help the team. This idiot is a bloody alcoholic!

 

The team will not tolerate a taskmaster like Kumble, but can definitely use the services of a fit energetic coach who can bring fresh ideas, keep the team spirits high and focus on practice and strategy planning ala Gary Kirsten.

All I asked boys was to give me some account.

Translation: all I asked the boys was to give me some champagne by winning the match

[Temujin Khaghan]

Come next match, Virat will take guard with a fresh mind as if he hasn't scored a single run in this series..

 

Translation: come evening, I will take a new peg with a fresh mind as if I haven't finished off the entire blue label early in the morning...

he is a perfect candidate for  kambal kutai

Seriously, this forum hates Shastri. Much of it is irrational. Shastri did give PC after lords defeat even if late. He did not go missing as most uninformed posters or haters here are claiming and liking such posts.

 

This is a good comment, and a counter perspective.

 

It is very much needed in a forum were we can often seem to gang up.  But let me explain why - in this case- we're right.

 

I have seen Shastri since the days Gavaskar pushed his case, leading to him becoming a bowler, then a batsman and then an allrounder for India.    While he was never comfortable long term in any of these roles he had grit ad he had b@lls.  Ravi Shastri was not a good bowler, nor was he a good batsman but he had more guts than a lot of his team mates. That much i'll give him. And he did brilliantly one time and win the Champions of Champions trophy and that famous Audi car (look it up- Shastri was a God around that time).

 

However the fact is - he was bog average, but bog average  with a confrontational personality. Soon crowds in India, who figure out things pretty fast were shouting "Shastri hai hai".

 

Let me put that in context- I've never seen an Indian audience do that over a sustained basis (years) for any player.  Use it FWIW.

 

Later one, despite all the shenanigans, he comes across as someone who is a bullshitter, frankly.  He's got NO measurable skills, at leats that is what it seems like.  Turns up for press conferences for the good times, missing elsewhere. HIs entire glib fast talking schtick is just that - a fast talking schtick.

 

At the end of the day audiences realize this. I.e that he's a big talker who claims go deliver results, a dubious connection.

 

That's the reason so many of us don't like him.  It's not irrational, it's our best judgment based on his own record.

Ek aadmi kitna kuch karta hai team ke liye: Modelling (iprosport), wine & other tasting, raat bhar chaukidari (hence asleep in daytime), press conferences, motivations, DJing and some coaching i'm told. All this while he has been expecting for so long.

 

Respect!
