Shastri named director of cricket for England ODIs
India have appointed Ravi Shastri as the director of cricket for the one-day series coming up
Shastri's column on Tuesday: 'glam boys' and penance
Ravi Shastri's column in the Times of India on Tuesday was full of strong stuff. He called India's showing in the Test series "wretched" and said it remained to be seen if the team was ready to do "penance".
"Five sessions and not five days have been enough to nail them," he wrote. "But move on we must. Sit back and watch if these glam boys are ready for penance. If they are prepared to plunge their bare hands into the coal of fire and start from scratch.
"England have made runs, but anyone would if the other side makes 100 or so."
