Twitterati troll Ravi Shastri for his protruding pot belly

Team India is currently gearing up for the second Test match against England at Lord’s. They are lagging by 1-0 in the series and no wonder would be keen to set the records straight with a clinical show at the iconic venue. Their coach Ravi Shastri has already cleared that his team will not ask for any excuses and they believe in winning the Test matches. However, amidst all the tension the fans are worried about his increasing tummy and are busy having a laugh on social media.

This is not the first time that the India head coach has been ridiculed on social media. Recently, he was caught napping on camera during the first day’s play at Edgbaston in the second session. Even the commentator Harbhajan Singh took a cheeky dig at him and suggested him to wake up and watch the contest on the 22 yards.

Moreover, his reactions while sitting in the dressing room during one of the games last year had gone viral. Tweeples had come up with hilarious memes over the same which had entertained the fans a lot.

The fitness of the support staff

The fitness of the support staff has also come under the scanner with the way Ravi Shastri’s tummy is visible nowadays. It looks pretty odd when he is standing at a place and indeed he is being targetted once again for his fitness. A few months ago, this issue had popped up with the bowling coach Bharat Arun also bearing a similar look and the fans had hilariously suggested for the yo-yo test of the support staff as well

Shastri is at the centre stage now and Twitter is enjoying its time trolling him. While some of them felt that the coach is useless as he will be struggling to even do the throwdowns to the players, few scripted his timetable of the day and kept gushing on it.

Here’s how Twitter ridiculed Shastri:

Why are people even surprised with Ravi Shastri stomach coming out. Man has the best job in the world. Wake up at 10, Watch the whole match half sleepy, Laugh around in the presentation and then go back to sleep. It was so Obvious.

Ravi Shastri ain't fit.. not even a great cricketer… Don't think he can do throw downs let alone helping players with technicalities… If he doesn't have a personal relationship with Virat, there's no other reason for him to be the Indian coach.
