On Thursday, Ravi Shastri (former captain of India and Mumbai) was honored with a stand named after him at the iconic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The event, organized by the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA), also saw gates named for women's cricket legend Diana Edulji and the late Dilip Sardesai, among others. Attendees included Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav, and cricketing greats like Sunil Gavaskar and Dilip Vengsarkar. Shastri reminisced about his playing days, sharing a humorous story about a Ranji Trophy final and his memorable six-hitting performance at the stadium. The Wankhede Stadium has a long tradition of honoring cricket legends, dating back to its opening in 1974, with the Sachin Tendulkar stand being a notable addition in 2001. Shastri's stand is strategically located below the media box, reflecting his dual legacy as a player and a commentator.
