Outgoing India head coach Ravi Shastri has hinted that he might return to cricket commentary. Shastri, 59, was a celebrated commentator before he became the head coach of the Indian team. That stint ended on Monday with the side’s last match of the T20 World Cup here against Namibia.

Talking to media after India’s win against Namibia, Shastri dropped hints about his future plans. “I mean, if you look at—if you want the real highlights, nothing beats Australia. England, we’re up in the series. It will be the longest time we’ll be up in the series until next year.

“I might be commentating on that game for all you know, but I’ll keep that one area. It feels good,” Shastri said referring to the pending fifth Test against England, which was rescheduled to next year due to a Covid-19 outbreak in India’s camp in September. Speculation is also rife that he might take up a coaching role in the IPL.
