Windies tour a litmus test for skipper Virat Kohli, coach Ravi Shastri

New Delhi, July 19 (CRICKETNMORE): The West Indies tour will be a litmus test for skipper Virat Kohli and coach Ravi Shastri after Indias exit in the semi-final stage of the 2019 World Cup. While it was a case of a one-off bad day, but the fact that the head coachs contract is up for renewal means that the performance of the team in West Indies will play a role in deciding if Shastri is handed an extension.

While the team has done well under Shastri, winning series in Australia, it has also competed well on overseas tour in South Africa and England. But with fresh application set to come in, the credentials of the candidates applying will also be considered by the ad-hoc Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) that is being formed by the Committee of Administrators.
