in any case he was silent during the peak of all the IPL fixtory and he should not expect 5 years'term for all responsibilities to prove ones calibre.He now a commentator only and that is his worry.There too if you are not good enough can you insist on even a three years' retention
No harm in trying other cricketers they might prove to be more competent than him .He openly flaunts his arrogance and in my opinion he should be shown the door.
Mr. Shastri, you think you are the only competent person and want money for nothing. There are more efficient cricketing brains and if you have started something great no one who comes after you will not dare to scrap that. You only want money and limelight ? Others too have played cricket and served the cricketing fans in a better way than you in their own rights. Learn from RAhul Dravid and Kumble who are so humble and genius than you. still deny the responsibility given at a time.
he was infamous his slow down while reaching his fifty and hundred, and once its done he use to throw away the wicket trying to hit six n four. such a selfish creature...and now he is talking about respect and competence
Another gimmick it is, just like the diesel ban..Indian judiciary is so corrupt that they want to milk everything they can. Flawed recommendations not in Interest of game. Unconstitutional recommendations. IT DOES NOT REQUIRE INSIDE OUT RESTRUCTURING OF THE A BODY FOR SAKE OF TRANSPARENCY..Warranted corrections could be made but what they are trying to do is......just SHAMBLES!
Shastri was captain of Indian team. He is a commentator for years. He is a columnist for years. Has been in the limelight for many years. People like Shastri, Gavaskar and few others have been ruling the roost continuously for many terms. They should gracefully make way for the others like Kapil Dev, Sreenath, etc., before they are shown the door

I agree completely. Shastri knows which side of the bread is buttered. Initially he was singing praises galore of Lalit Modi. And when bad times hit Modi, he hitched on to Srinivasan bandwagon. But Lodha panel and the apex court are exceeding their jurisdiction here. They should not be stipulating various conditions. BCCI should call independent minds like Bedi, Mohinder Amarnath to get unbiased view.Although Shastri and Gavaskar are great cricketing brains but they put self interest before all else unlike Bishen and Jimmy.
Ravi Shastri was and is a stooge of that most corrupt Srivinasan who had converted cricket game into business and indulged in all sorts of match fixing and other illegal activities. Ravi Shastri is part of that loot and that gang member. They are worse than Dawood Ibrahim
