India's chief coach Ravi Shastri has once again extended his unflinching support to Mahendra Singh Dhoni, saying those commenting on the two-time World Cup winning former skipper should look back at their own careers.
A few former India players, including VVS Laxman, Virender Sehwag and Ajit Agarkar, recently raised questions about Dhoni's T20I future, creating quite a storm in the country's cricketing circles.
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.Ravi Shastri, Coach- India
The coach further added that the culture of the current team is based on performance and quality.
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.Ravi Shastri, Coach- India
India will take on Sri Lanka in three Tests beginning with the Eden five-dayer on November 16, and this will be Shastri's first home Test series.
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.Ravi Shastri, Coach- India
