Ravi Shastri will have a stand named after him at the iconic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai following approval by the Mumbai Cricket Association during its Apex Council meeting. The Level 1 Stand below the Press Box will bear his name, recognising his long and multifaceted contribution to Indian cricket as a player, captain, head coach, and commentator. A former all-rounder, he was part of India’s 1983 World Cup era and later guided the national team to significant overseas Test victories as coach. The tribute highlights Mumbai’s rich cricketing legacy and honours his enduring association with the sport.
