Former Team India head coach, now a cricket expert and commentator Ravi Shastri has made a significant statement about Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in an interesting and sharp manner. He clearly stated that their stature in white-ball cricket is on a different level.
Ravi Shastri made some interesting comments
According to a media report, Shastri said, “No sensible person would risk confronting such top-level players.” He added that some people are unnecessarily attempting this, but they don’t realize how costly it could be.
Ravi Shastri said, “Some people are doing this, and if these two get it right, press the right buttons, then all those who are creating trouble will disappear from the scene very soon.”

Virat Kohli once again scored a century in the second ODI. This was Kohli’s second consecutive century in this series against South Africa. Prior to this, he had scored 135 runs in the opening ODI of the series. Virat Kohli came in to bat at number three in the second ODI in Raipur. India had lost both their opening batsmen by the score of 62. Virat Kohli reached his century in 90 balls. This was the 53rd century of his ODI career. Kohli faced 93 balls in this match and scored 102 runs with 2 sixes and 7 fours.
Shastri’s statement suggests that there are individuals, both within and outside the team, who are trying to question or undermine Kohli and Rohit. While he didn’t name names, his words clearly indicate that he opposes this approach. Shastri has long praised the game and match-winning abilities of both players. According to him, their experience and class combined to set a benchmark that is difficult to surpass.
This statement has sparked renewed debate in the cricketing world about who exactly are those “some people” Shastri is referring to? Only time will tell, but it’s certain that Shastri has created a stir in cricket circles.
