 Shakib and Tamim will have to burn

If the new phase of the Bangladesh-India cricket-war starts from the 2015 World Cup, all of them were in the dressing room of India, including Ravi Shastri. Udlat Shuvro interviewed former team director of the Indian team at Cardiff on Monday for Bangladesh-India semifinalsQ: Anyone who did not think before the start of the tournament, you are a little surprised by the Bangladesh-India semifinals?
Ravi Shastri: I am not surprised at all. Because, I have been seeing Bangladesh cricket very intensely for a long time. Last year also I went to Bangladesh in Asia Cup. Bangladesh played the final. So I'm not surprised at all. No party now takes Bangladesh lightly. Anyone who has to take the price has to slip. On that day, the match with New Zealand was amazing. Shakib world class. Again, he is a great cricketer! He has been dragging Bangladesh for years, tell me! Bangladesh's match against New Zealand is the best match of the Champions Trophy. Hats off to Bangladesh ... 4 wickets to win 33 runs straight!
Question: Bangladesh captain Mashrafe Bin Mortaza often grieved and said that everyone looked after the neglect of the Bangladesh team before. Days of respect for the day?
Ravi Shastri: Bangladesh is definitely honored now and Mashrafei has a lot of credit for it. Good captain They understand the strengths and weaknesses of their team players very well. Tactical changes are also good. Bangladesh is now getting respect from all and they have been able to earn it. Bangladesh is coming up - we knew it well in the sub-continent. But now the whole world is talking about this. Especially after the match against New Zealand. It's an incredible performance.
Question: Bangladesh-India say that the 2007 World Cup came inevitably. Bangladesh has forced to change India and change the format of the World Cup. Soon after the World Cup, when India went to Bangladesh, you are the coach of the team. What do you remember
Ravi Shastri: Indian cricket is so turbid. There is a big problem with coach Greg Chappell. Such a catastrophe happened in the World Cup, followed by playing with Bangladesh in Bangladesh. I was suddenly asked to take responsibility. We did not take Bangladesh lightly. Our players knew that to win with Bangladesh, the best game would be to play. Otherwise, Bangladesh can not be defeated. It was a good game!
Q: In the press conference that tour was very critical in the media of Bangladesh with your offensive speech. Has it reached your ears?
Ravi Shastri: No, I did not hear anything. I did not even hear it. What I needed to urge my players, I did that.
Q: For the last few days, India-India match means fire fighting. The debate over the no-ball in the 2015 World Cup quarter-finals, soon after pushing Dhoni's Mostafiz into Bangladesh, losing the India series ... Do you think a new war is going on in cricket?
Ravi Shastri: I do not think the players have remembered him as much as you said. Now every day, new events, new matches ... the time of the past remembering so much? After Bangladesh, after all, India has gone back to Bangladesh. Asia Cup has played, Bangladesh has lost in the final. I do not think the players remembered the previous one. Players did not remember the words three years ago, four years ago.
Q: But ordinary people? When Bangladesh and India play for two-three years, the war between the two countries begins in the social media ...
Ravi Shastri: I can not say. I'm not in social media, so what's going on there, I have no idea. I forgot myself. I had so many matches! Saying new match every day Where is the time of the last all the matches!
Q: Did you say that, after the 2015 World Cup, India lost the 2-1 series in Bangladesh, there was a lot of controversy about the dismissal of Mostafiz Dhoni, do not you remember?
Ravi Shastri: Hey brother, do you remember so much! Yes, I miss it if I lose a big match. Such as 2007 We bid farewell to the World Cup. Remember that. The World Cup quarter-final halley remembered. Asia Cup Final Harley would have remembered. There are a lot of things in the bilateral series, everyone who forgets.
Q: Do you remember the Bangladesh-India match in the T20 World Cup in Bangalore?
Ravi Shastri: Yes, remember. I am in India's dressing room. That was the match of Bangladesh and you handed it to us as a gift. We got ready to go home by bag-tagging. You called us and said, 'No, playing in India, it does not look good. It does not look good. Come back, you play. '(Laughter).
Q: Have been with cricket for so many years. Is this the most unexpected result you have seen in a match?
Ravi Shastri: Of course. I did not imagine that we would win the match from that situation. I think, you started celebrating before. There is no reason. That match is to win the Bangladesh!
Q: What is your prediction about the Bangladesh-India semifinals?
Ravi Shastri: It will be a good game. India has many presets for Bangladesh. They will not make the mistake of taking Bangladesh lightly. India will certainly start as a favorite. They are ahead of the experience. But what happens on a specific day, that is the most important.
Q: What can be the determinant in this match? For example, the first power-playing batting-bowling or death over game ...
Ravi Shastri: It depends on what the weather-like weather is like on that day, on it. Ejbaston has seen so far, very good batting conditions.
