Ravi Shastri Called India’s Win Over Australia Bigger Than 1983 World Cup, Got Brutally Trolled
Just yesterday, India won the first ever Test Series in Australia creating a history everyone Indian dreamed of. Virat Kohli and his men outplayed Aussie in every field making it an event that will be remembered by everyone for ages. It also shows the characters of this Indian Team and how much hard work they put in to achieve this goal.
Ravi Shastri and Skipper Virat Kohli attended the press conference and made some interesting revelations. However, Shastri has a habit of creating controversies series after series, he has done it again. On being asked about this historic win, Shastri said,
“I will tell you how satisfying this is for me. World Cup 1983, World Championship 1985…this is as big or even bigger because this is in the truest format of the game, that is Test cricket.”

However, this remark of India’s coach has not gone down well with the netizens. They can’t believe that Shastri called India’s Test Series Win in Australia bigger than World Cup 1983 win. Soon, they trolled him like never before.
This Is How Netizens Reacted:
Team India performs well and earns all respect, Ravi Shastri loses whatever's left by giving stupid remarks series after series. Yes, #TeamIndia has done a great job but how fair is it to demean World Cup heroes of 1983? Does he know the diff b/w this Aus Team & 1983's WI Team? https://t.co/1NfALc9xzq

I like Shastri's role. He can get drunk on a Monday morning and get away with such remarks.
1983 WC win gave India Sachin, television rights, money to BCCI, IPL and much more. #AccidentalCoach #Shastri #AUSvIND #INDvAUS
