Ravi Shastri, the former India head coach, has indicated interest in participating in the IPL. After the ICC T20 World Cup 2021, the 59-year-old stepped down as India’s head coach.
Ravi Shastri was questioned about his plans for the future. The former Indian all-rounder explained that he will first take a sabbatical before deciding his future step.
Ravi Shastri talked on how cricket is always changing and how he can get involved in the media and digital realm.
“Next, there is plenty. I will take a break and there is plenty in the sporting space that can be done. It is a great game, it is evolving, the space around the game — the media and digital space are evolving. At this moment, my fingers are pointing in five different directions,” said Ravi Shastri.

According to sources, Ravi Shastri has already been approached by the Ahmedabad IPL franchise to join them as the team’s head coach for the IPL 2022 season. While Shastri did not confirm the claims, he did suggest that he may coach in the IPL.
“I would definitely be part of coaching, at grassroots levels and there is no question about it. Who knows if you get an opportunity in the IPL in the future, then I would definitely not say no to that. Of course, television will always be there. For the moment, it is time to take a break, relax, reflect and enjoy the free time,” Ravi Shastri concluded.
Shastri, on the other hand, was pleased with the team’s success during his tenure. Former Indian head coach Virat Kohli is looking forward to a bright future.
