Shastri was following in the famous footsteps of the great Wilfred Rhodes, who also started off his Test career as a left-arm spinner batting at No. 10 before transitioning into a genuine world-class opener.

 

After taking five wickets in an innings in his first series, he was to achieve the feat only once more in his 80-Test career.

 

He averaged 44.04 while opening, which compares very well to the likes of Anshuman Gaekwad (30.65), Kris Srikkanth (29.88) and Navjot Sidhu (42.80).

 

 

Over his 11-year Test career between 1981 and 1992, Shastri batted in every position except No. 11. He scored Test centuries as an opener, and from No. 3, No. 6 and No. 7, and also managed a score of 93 at No. 8.

 

Ravi was named "Champion of Champions" at the 1985 World Championship of Cricket in Australia; his performances through the tournament earned him an Audi car

 

in the 1985 season Shastri became just the second player after Garry Sobers* to hit six sixes in the one over in first-class cricket. He did it in a Ranji Trophy match in which he scored a double-century in less than two hours.

A photo memorial, flowers and cricket equipment were laid behind the stumps where Hughes was struck down last Tuesday. The pitch and centre square were roped off as a mark of respect, and the pitch on which Hughes played his final game will be retired and not used again this summer.

Clarke...

 

 

"Is this what we call the spirit of cricket?" Clarke said. "From the little girl in Karachi holding a candlelight tribute to masters of the game like Tendulkar, Warne and Lara, showing their grief to the world, the spirit of cricket binds us all together. We feel it in the thrill of a cover drive. Or the taking of a screamer at gully, whether by a 12-year-old boy in Worcester or by Brendon McCullum in Dubai.
