ravichandran ashwin

In a thump to India's ace off-spinner ravichandran ashwin, Indian bowling coach Paras Mhambrey and New Zealand's spin bowling all-rounder Mitchell Santner have endorsed Ashwin's suggestion of starting the world cup early to elimate the undue advantage to the side batting second due to the dew factor. Santner said dew in the later part of the day makes easy for the team batting second.

India off-spinner ravichandran ashwin's idea of an early start in the ODI World Cup matches got full support from his skipper Rohit Sharma who too wants it so that no one has to compromise too much on the toss factor.

Premier India off-spinner ravichandran ashwin wants 2023 ODI World Cup matches, which will be played in India in October and November, to begin from 11.30am, a timing which is earlier than the usual 1:30pm start of day-night 50-over games in India.

Star India off-spinner ravichandran ashwin said it's surprising to see so many "taboos" regarding the 'Mankad' form of dismissal and asked why bowlers are always subjected to different "treatments".

To prove his fitness for the upcoming Australia series, India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja is set to make his comeback to competitive cricket in a Ranji Trophy game for Saurashtra against Tamil Nadu, starting from January 24.

Star Australia batter Marnus Labuschagne can't wait to engage in a "lovely game of chess" with ravichandran ashwin during next month's Test tour of India after making required changes in his game to combat the ace spinner.

The controversy surrounding Melbourne Stars skipper Adam Zampa's attempt to run out Tom Rogers of Melbourne Renegades at the non strikers' end refuses to die down with Indian off spinner ravichandran ashwin expressing his views on the incident in the Big Bash League.

Ashwin's six wickets in the second Test against Bangladesh moved him up one slot to be joint-fourth among bowlers, while Iyer's scores of 87 and 29 not out took him up to 16th from his previous 26th position.

ravichandran ashwin has taken a slight dig at people who perceive him as an "overthinker" of the game following his match-winning performance against Bangladesh in the second Test in Mirpur.

The Mirpur Test looked lost. On a tricky pitch, where the ball was often staying low and behaving mean, India had lost 7 wickets for 74. The big boys were back in the hut. The target, 145, looked depressingly distant. That’s when ravichandran ashwin joined Shreyas Iyer in the middle. They were the last batters standing. Only tail-enders Umesh Yadav and Mohd Siraj remained as insurance.

ravichandran ashwin once again showed his batting prowess to help India eke out a narrow three-wicket win over Bangladesh in the second Test at the Shere Bangla National Stadium, Dhaka on Sunday.

On Christmas morning in tandem with the equally equanimous Iyer (29 n.o), Ashwin fashioned an unbroken 71 run partnership to deliver a nerve-jangling three-wicket win for India. He was again Team India's hero and saviour abroad. And his off-breaks had once more taken a backseat.

ravichandran ashwin and Shreyas Iyer bailed India out from precarious 74-7 and put on 71 runs in an unbroken eighth-wicket stand to steer the visitors home in the second Test against Bangladesh on Sunday.

India's batting approach in the two Tests against Bangladesh was a far cry from the aggression promised by KL Rahul and the buck stops at the stand-in captain's doorstep after a close shave in the Mirpur game which could have gone the home team's way.

India came back in heroic fashion on Friday to overcome a batting collapse and deny Bangladesh a historic win as Shreyas Iyer and ravichandran ashwin forged a decisive partnership to help the visitors to a three-wicket win in the second Test on Day 4 at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka. India swept the two-match series 2-0.

Pacer Mohammed Siraj is confident about India winning the second Test against Bangladesh and said on Saturday that there is nothing to worry about as one set batter can take the visitors to victory. Visitors India found themselves in a spot of bother after they were reduced to 45 for four at stumps on Day 3 in a tricky chase of 145.

Indian bowlers made a confident start on the third morning, getting four wickets as Bangladesh huffed and puffed their way to 71 for 4 at lunch in the second Test on Saturday.

When a player is adjudged the man of the match for his heroics, it is all but sure for him to retain his place in the following match but that was not the case with Kuldeep Yadav.

Indian bowlers fired in unison as they skittled out Bangladesh for 227 runs on the opening day of the second Test at Shere Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka. At stumps, India openers Shubman Gill (14) and KL Rahul (3) were unbeaten at the crease. India were still trailing by 208 runs. India bowled out Bangladesh for 227 in their first innings on the opening day of the second Test.

Pacer Jaydev Unadkat and off-spinner ravichandran ashwin accounted for one batter each but Bangladesh managed to reach 82 for two at lunch on the opening day of the second Test against India, here on Thursday.
