Ravi Shastri’s as coach of the Indian Cricket team was a successful one, as they won back-to-back Test series in Australia and also reached the first-ever Test Championship final.

He also brought a new attitude and fearlessness to the Indian Cricket Team during his time as the coach.

Speaking on Cricbuzz’s docuseries Summer Stalemate, as quoted by Hindustan Times, Karthik said that Shastri had a very low tolerance for players who wouldn’t bat at a certain pace he didn’t like or if someone was doing differently in a match as compared to their efforts in the net.

“He had a very low tolerance for somebody who wouldn’t bat at a certain pace he did not like or someone who was doing very differently in the nets and in the match, he would go and bat differently,” Karthik said

He would not be very appreciative of that. Shastri knew exactly what he wanted from the team, the way in which it was played, but his tolerance was very little for failures. He always used to push people to do very well,” he added. ( H/T Indian Express  )
