Rating the Indian Coaches who donned the hats since 2000

Ravi Shashtri (2014-2016) – 7/10

Ravi Shastri had a fairly successful time working as the Director of the Indian team

After the 2015 World Cup, Ravi Shashtri assumed complete responsibility of the Indian team as their Director. Although he was not designated as the coach, Ravi Shastri guided the team for the next two years. The former Indian all-rounder carries his own legacy in the world of Cricket and his job with the Indian team was no different as he time and again shouldered interim responsibilities of the team. During his tenure, team India reached the semi-finals of all 2015 World Cup and 2016 T20 World Cup.

His biggest achievements in this role boast of India's brilliant comeback in the Tests. The Indian team defeated Sri Lanka in a Test series and went on to stunningly defeat South Africa 3-0 at home, regaining their No. 1 spot in the ICC Test rankings. Not only this, Team India picked up consistency across the three formats.

The sub-continental giants also went on to win their first T20 bilateral series in Australia as they whitewashed the hosts before clinching the Asia Cup during his regime. Ravi Shastri was one of the most efficient persons in the administrative job with respect to the Indian team.

He can also be an option for the next coach of the Indian team.
