The final Test between India and England has been called off. It is only after the cancellation of the Manchester Test that the Indian team's head coach Ravi Shastri is constantly being questioned. It was only after he joined a book launch in London that a big controversy arose. At the same time, questions are being raised that they have flouted the Protocol of Covid. But now, during all this, Ravi Shastri himself broke the silence and made his case in front of everyone.
In fact, Ravi Shastri, bowling coach Bharat Arun, fielding coach R Sridhar and physio Nitin Patel have been found infected with corona after the ceremony at a 5-star hotel in London before the fourth Test. This had an impact on the 5th and last encounters. Talking to Mid-Day, Ravi Shastri said that the entire United Kingdom is open and there is no restriction. Anything could have happened from the first Test itself. According to media reports, Shastri or Kohli did not even seek permission from the Indian Cricket Board to attend the function at the team hotel. Senior board officials said that permission from board chairman Sourav Ganguly or secretary Jai Shah has not been granted so far. Perhaps they felt that there was a relaxation in health safety rules in the UK, there was no need to seek permission.
At the same time, the official said that there is no certainty of Ravi Shastri or captain Kohli being punished for such an act before the T20 World Cup. Shastri is likely to step down after the World Cup. Kohli is the captain so it is difficult for him to be punished too. On the performance of the Indian team in England, coach Shastri said that this has been the best summer of England cricket. At the same time, Indian cricket has seen it after a long time.
