Team India is currently brimming with talent in all formats of the game. India showcased their bench strength when they got the better of Australia in Tests Down Under with a depleted side where numerous Indian youngsters punched well above their weight.
Sunil Gavaskar said there is no better man than Ravi Shastri to encourage budding talent.
Ravi Shastri’s appointment as head coach came in controversial circumstances after Anil Kumble stepped down from the role of Indian coach in 2017. However, Shastri has managed to win over his critics in the past few years, and many experts consider the current team as the best Indian side ever.

Sunil Gavaskar also spoke about the influence of bowling coach Bharat Arun. Over the last few years, Team India has seen a lot of talent come through in the fast bowling department, historically a weak area of the team.
Team India will have a great chance to showcase their power when they play New Zealand in a one-off Test for the ICC World Test Championship title in June.
Moreover, Ravi Shastri and his team will have another eye on the ICC T20 World Cup, which will take place in India this year. If India manage to win both major ICC titles in two vastly different formats, it will rubber-stamp their position as the best cricket team in the world right now.
