England need to be careful with R Ashwin: Ravi Shastri

According to India Today, Ravi Shastri said at the Naman Award ceremony, “Ashwin just said, I am going to do better. Now that he has got a new hairstyle and his mind is free from hair, air is passing through his mind better, now can you imagine what he is thinking? Someone may be ‘third’, someone may be ‘fourth’. England will know this very soon, in the next few months.

I don’t see the England team here, but Baz (Brendon McCullum) is here. All the best to you for the test series. It’s always a great series, 5 Tests to watch after a long time. Play hard, play fair. Play well within the rules.”

Let us tell you, R Ashwin has an excellent track record against England, he has taken 88 wickets in 19 Test matches, which includes six five-wicket hauls and once six-wicket haul. Now Ashwin is just 12 wickets away from becoming the second bowler after James Anderson to take 100 or more wickets in Test matches between India and England.

“Every day, do better than yesterday.”

Meanwhile, giving advice to the young players, Ravi Shastri said: “My first advice to the young players would be to tell them that this is a great game. There is no shortcut to success. You will be a hero today, and the game will bring you down again tomorrow.

So, when things are going well, take advantage of it and be even more determined. Considering the amount of money available in sports these days, you don’t need any other motivation. Every day, do better than yesterday.”
