Kolkata: Kapil Dev, the chief of the three-member Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) yesterday reacted to India captain Virat Kohli saying earlier this week that he would like to see head coach Ravi Shastri continue.
"The CAC hasn't contacted me as yet. If they tell me we want your opinion, yes I will definitely go and speak to them. And with Ravibhai, all of us have a greet camaraderie. Everyone in the team shares mutual respect and we have done really well together as a group. We will definitely be very happy if he continues as coach," Kohli said on Monday. However, Kapil said: "That is Virat's opinion. If he wants to talk to us, he can do so, but he has to call. We are open to talk to him." Former opener and coach Anshuman Gaekwad as well as ex-India women's captain Shantha Rangaswamy are other members of the panel.
