'When I Saw Him... I Said He's The Man': Shastri Feels Sundar Can Be A Genuine Allrounder For India

By IANS News July 22, 2025 • 09:56 AM View: 505

The ICC Review: Former India head coach Ravi Shastri has voiced strong support for Washington Sundar after the third Test at Lord’s, lauding the youngster’s all-round abilities. He expressed confidence in Sundar’s potential to grow into a genuine all-rounder for India in Test cricket.

Sundar, who made his memorable Test debut during India’s historic victory at the Gabba in 2021 under then-head coach Shastri, has seen limited chances in red-ball cricket since. He has featured in just 11 Tests so far, amassing 545 runs and claiming 30 wickets.

In his four outings in the ongoing England Test series so far, Sundar has scores of 42, 12 not out, 23 and 0, in addition to his five wickets.
