However, Indian cricket supporters have taken to social media to express their displeasure at the lack of recognition given to the contributions of Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid, as well as to the contributions of former coach Ravi Shastri.
Former Indian batter Mohammad Kaif praised Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid on Tuesday, stating that “suddenly all seems fine” within the squad and that a world-beating Test unit is taking shape. Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid have filled the voids that had existed before their arrival. “With KL, Rohit, Vihari, Kohli, Iyer… Pant, Jadeja… Bumrah, Shami, and many other No. 11 alternatives…… All of a sudden, everything seems to be back to normal. Rohit and Dravid are building a world-class Test team “Kaif was quoted as saying.
A number of Indian cricket fans took to Twitter to express their anger with the former cricketer’s failure to credit Virat Kohli and Ravi Shastri with building a team that went on to win numerous Test matches abroad after the post was made public.
No Dravid or Rohit has done anything fresh since 2013, said to one fan, so don’t insult Ravi Shastri in the process.
Another person noted that Kohli and Shastri deserve all the credit for developing India’s bowling attack.
“Kohli & Shastri deserve credit for building this bowling unit,” remarked the user.
Team India has always been able to win Test matches at home, a fan claimed, and now the difficulty is to win in other soils.
“Under Kohli, the same team performed and won! There is nothing new to report. The real test, however, would be conducted in another country! Over the last two years, Kohli and Shastri were unable to get rid of Pujara and Rahane despite their poor performances. It was disappointing that Ashwin was left out of the picture “User has tweeted about it.
Finally, a fan pointed out that under Kohli, Team India went from being ranked seventh in the world to being ranked first in the world in the longest format.
“Virat Kohli and Ravi Shastri have already made a significant impact on it. Those are Kohli’s players. No one else comes close to matching his accomplishments.
As a result of his efforts, he rose from a test ranking of 7 to 1. Let’s see how things proceed in their new period, shall we? “User has tweeted about it.
In the just-finished Test series, India defeated Sri Lanka by a score of 2-0. Under Rohit’s leadership, India went undefeated during the domestic season. Team India went on to win 14 games in the World Test Championship, and this victory over Sri Lanka took them up to the fourth place.
Against England in the fifth and final Test of the series, which was originally scheduled for last year but rescheduled for this year, India will face its next test under the longest format in July of this year.
