Naming a stand after Shastri while he’s still actively commentating feels premature and slightly self-congratulatory. Yes, he won a Test series in Australia, but the MCA conveniently ignores his controversial exit as India coach—loaded with public spats and ego clashes. Honoring Sardesai, Solkar, and Edulji alongside him dilutes their legacies. Mumbai’s establishing a tier system where recent administrators rank alongside genuine pioneers. Poor optics masquerading as reverence.
