Memorable moments of Ravi Shastri s career

Shastri’s most memorable achievement on the cricketing field remains winning the ‘Champions of Champions’ title during the World Championship of Cricket in Australia in 1985. He won an Audi for his brilliant all-round performance. He scored 182 runs at an average of 45.50 and claimed eight wickets at an average of 20.75. Shikhar Dhawan and Virat Kohli shared Instagram stories to wish the former India coach.. In January 1985, he equaled Gary Sobers' world record of hitting six sixes in an over, achieving the rare feat during a Ranji Trophy match. He was also the first Indian batter to register a double century in a Test in Australia. He did so during the Sydney Test in January 1992. He hammered debutant Shane Warne all over the park before becoming the late leg-spinner’s first Test victim. The maverick personality of Indian cricket is currently in the news for his CRED ad, which is winning a lot of praise for presenting the former cricketer in a hilarious happy-go-lucky avatar.
