India head coach Ravi Shastri slammed cricket experts
A
few former cricketers, VVS Laxman & Ajit Agarkar wanted Dhoni to step out
of T20 cricket & give chance to youngster. According to Agarkar, Dhoni
needs to take time to set & in T20 cricket there is no time. Earlier Dhoni
was blamed when India lost the second T20 against New Zealand at home. Dhoni
played slow & he could not middle the ball when he came in to bat in 10th
over.
Ravi
Shastri called Dhoni a legend & he said it is the responsibility of the
team to provide him support, "People should look back at their career
before commenting on Dhoni. The captain has a lot of cricket left in him and it
is the duty of the team to back the legend,"
Shastri
further said that Dhoni is the best wicket keeper batsman & no one can
replace him, "There is no one better than Dhoni on the field given his
ability behind the wicket and with the bat and his presence of mind and
sharpness on the field."
"In
terms of fielding this team is the very best in the world at the moment and
that's something that separates this team from Indian teams of the past."
India
will play three Test matches against Sri Lanka starting on 16 November &
this will be the head coach’s first Test series at home.
"This
team always turns up on the park to win. We hope to win the series spread over
one and half months before going to South Africa.", he added.
Hardik
Pandya has been rested for the first 2 Tests, Shastri said, "This team is
not about one particular individual, we lose together, we win together."
