Everyone knows that Kohli has a very upbeat relationship with Shastri.
Team India head coach Ravi Shastri claimed that Virat Kohli is the "boss" of the team as he leads his side from the front.
Shastri also added how his job is to just take some "burden" off the skipper's shoulders.
"The captain is the boss, I always believe that," Shastri said on the Sky Sports Podcast.
"The job of the coaching staff is to prepare the guys in the best possible way to get out there and play positive, brave, fearless cricket," he added.
The former Indian cricketer then went on to add how its the captain who sets the tone for his side in the middle and controls the show as no coach on this planet is capable of doing that.
"The captain leads from the front. Yes, we are there to take off the burden – he's not going to each player and talk to them, that's my job; if you've got to pull someone up – but you leave him to do his job in the middle," Ravi claimed.
"The captain sets the tone and is encouraged to set the tone. In the middle, he controls the show. No coach in the world can do that," he added.
Everyone knows that Kohli has a very upbeat relationship with Shastri.
When Shastri’s reign was about to come to an end after ICC World Cup 2019, Kohli publicly voiced his support for him and said he'd love to see Shastri as the Indian coach again.
But the relation between the pair is often under fire from the fans with some calling Shastri a 'Yes Man' to the Indian skipper.
Regardless of that, the Kohli-Shastri duo managed to mastermind India to no.1 Test side and also the top-ranked ODI team in world cricket in the past few years.
Despite the world going through the coronavirus pandemic, Shastri decided to look at the positives and said that the break brought some "welcome rest for the players" ahead of the T20 World Cup.
"I could see towards the end of the New Zealand tour that the cracks were coming with mental fatigue, physical fitness and injuries. The amount of cricket we played over the last 10 months was beginning to take its toll."
"Guys like me and some of the support staff left India on May 23 for the World Cup in England and since then we've been home for just 10-11 days. There are certain players who have played all three formats of the game. Imagine the toll it takes ... It's been tough," he concluded.
