we did not have a great tournament but, you will get another chance: Shastri
“You guys as a team have over exceeded my expectations with the way you have played. Over the last few years, to go across the globe, across all formats, and beat everyone, makes you one of the great teams that have played the game.”
“This will go down as one of the great teams that have played the game over the last 5-6 years across all formats because there are results to be seen,” Shastri was quoted as saying.
“Yes, we did not have a great tournament. We could have won one or two ICC tournaments, didn’t happen. But that’s sport. You will get another chance. You will be wiser and more experienced when the next opportunity comes. But, for me, the most important thing in life is not what you accomplish, it’s what you overcome that override everything else,” he added.
Previously, in the post-match news conference, Shastri expressed appreciation to the Board of Control for Cricket in India for providing him the opportunity to serve as India’s head coach for up to 4 years. He also spoke highly of former BCCI president N Srinivasan.
