Ravi Shastri hints at returning as commentator

DUBAI: Former all-rounder Ravi Shastri, who ended his tenure as India cricket team's head coach on Monday, has hinted that he might return to cricket commentary.

Before taking up the coaching assignment of the Indian team, the 59-year-old was one of the prominent voices in the world of cricket commentary.

After bidding adieu to his cricketing career, Shastri carved out a reputation for himself in commentary with his flamboyant style of narrating the happenings of a live game. He was also in the commentary box in 2011 when Mahendra Singh Dhoni hit that historic six off Nuwan Kulasekara to end India's 28-year wait for a World Cup trophy.

Talking to the media after India's last T20 World Cup match against Namibia, Shastri dropped hints about his future plans.

"I mean, if you look at — if you want the real highlights, nothing beats Australia. England, we're up in the series. It will be the longest time we'll be up in the series until next year. I might be commentating on that game for all you know, but I'll keep that one area. It feels good," he said. IANS
