Shastri will have to show Ganguly and co that he is his own man in the dressing room

Back To The Future

Ravi Shastri’s holiday in England after the Champions Trophy in June was far from relaxing. The cricket advisory committee (CAC) of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, comprising Sourav Ganguly, Sachin Tendulkar and V.V.S. Laxman, had interviewed him for the position of Team India’s head coach. The wait for the result was, perhaps, more stressful for him than the interview itself.

The CAC finally made its decision public on June 11, and it took Shastri, skipper Virat Kohli and even BCCI officials by surprise. Shastri, 55, who had been the front runner for the position, was confirmed as head coach, while India-A coach Rahul Dravid was made overseas batting consultant for Tests. Former pace spearhead Zaheer Khan was appointed bowling consultant.

William Dalrymple goes further back

Indian readers have long known William Dalrymple as the chronicler nonpareil of India in the early years of the British raj. His latest book, The Golden Road, is a striking departure, since it takes him to a period from about the third century BC to the 12th-13th centuries CE.

The bleat from the street

What with all the apps delivering straight to one’s doorstep, the supermarkets, the food halls and even the occasional (super-expensive) pop-up thela (cart) offering the woke from field-to-fork option, the good old veggie-market/mandi has fallen off my regular beat.

Upgrade your jeans

If you don’t live in the top four-five northern states of India, winter means little else than a pair of jeans. I live in Mumbai, where only mad people wear jeans throughout the year. High temperatures and extreme levels of humidity ensure we go to work in mulmul salwars, cotton pants, or, if you are lucky like me, wear shorts every day.
