This morning, India won the third Test against South Africa by an innings and 202 runs. This was also the first time we managed to whitewash the Proteas in the format.
Now, the way we dominated the guests, it was natural for people to ask what was our game plan.

Coach Ravi Shastri very articulately explained what it was.
(I said) pitch ko nikaalo game se, bhaad mein gaya pitch. 20 wicket nikaalne hain.
Chaahe Johannesburg ho,
chaahe India ho,
chaahe Mumbai ho,
chaahe Delhi ho,
chaahe Auckland ho.
Jidhar bhi…
chaahe Melbourne ho.

I have a strong feeling this quote by Shastri will turn out to be more historic that India’s victory. Let’s see if it does!
Ravi Shastri doesn’t give a fuck about anything. Who speaks like this during a presentation ceremony? 😂

“Apun ko pitch ko game se nikaalne ka tha, bhaad mein gaya pitch. Apne ko bas 20 wickets maangta hai chahe Ranchi ho, Auckland ho, Melbourne ho” #INDvSA

Shastri further said that once the wickets are taken, India’s batting line-up runs like a Ferrari. Which is a beautiful thing to say, honestly.

Hearing Ravi Shastri speak at the post-match presentation. We might as well have Jaggu Dada as our head coach. pic.twitter.com/4oyyePTQ2C

Post Match gems from #RaviShastri. One for the archives 🙏#INDvSA pic.twitter.com/VOQUt6pm6K

However, it looks like he was a little too chilled out about India’s Ferrari-like batting line-up. Proof:
Wish my parents had the same confidence in me, as Ravi Shastri has in his team.#INDvsSA pic.twitter.com/bGddE87pzR
