‘Jealous gang’ wanted me to fail, says former India coach Ravi Shastri

The Hindu  

Robert Key will need to grow a "thick skin" akin to the Dukes ball just like I grew one to counter the "jealous people", former India head coach Ravi Shastri said on how the ex-England opener should go out about his job as ECB's 'Director of Cricket'. In an interview to UK's The Guardian, Shastri said that there was a "gang of people in India" who always wanted him to fail. Outlining the philosophy and team culture is important, according to Shastri and that's what he had drilled in when India beat Australia in two back-to-back away series. Shastri also feels that Key needs to discuss issues with former Test captain Joe Root to understand how it all works.
