Shastri was retained as Team India head coach in August 2019 for a two-year period, ending with the 2021 T20 World Cup in India. It’s his fourth stint with the national side, having served earlier as the Cricket Manager (2007 tour of Bangladesh), Team Director (2014-2016) and head coach (2017-2019). Under his guidance, India won the Test series in Australia, registered a clean sweep over the West Indies across all formats and a three-match T20 International series against South Africa ended in a 1-1 draw at home. Currently, India are 1-0 up in the ongoing three-match Test series against South Africa. The second Test is underway in Pune and India are inching towards a record 11th successive Test series win at home.
