Kohli-Kumble fiasco is behind us: Ashwin
Off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin on Monday made it clear that the Indian cricket team has put to rest the recent coach-captain controversy and gave thumbs up to the new coach Ravi Shastri.
Galle: Off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin on Monday made it clear that the Indian cricket team has put to rest the recent coach-captain controversy and gave thumbs up to the new coach Ravi Shastri.
India's most successful Test bowler in recent times felt that Shastri would have a positive impact on the entire team.
"We are well past that moment (when the difference of opinion emerged between captain Virat Kohli and former coach Anil Kumble).
The decision has been made and it is definitely something that I cannot really comment on. Ravi bhai (Shastri) has been a fabulous person to have in the dressing room," Ashwin told reporters after team's training session.
"Even when he was here last time, we lost that Test in Galle and really picked us up from that low point in our careers. And he (Shastri) is someone who can really have a positive influence on the dressing room. We are looking forward to working together and producing some amazing results," he added.
Ashwin termed Sri Lanka's tour of 2015 as a landmark for Indian team for their come-from-behind 2-1 series win. "We have produced a lot of good players, some youngsters have come in while others have excelled,"
he added.
