WI vs IND 2023: India's predicted playing XI for Test series
India will play a couple of Tests against the West Indies in the Caribbean islands between July 12 to July 25.
8. Ravichandran Ashwin
Ravichandran Ashwin was named in India’s squad for the series against the West Indies. In the WTC final 2023 at the Oval, London, Ashwin didn’t feature in India’s playing XI. His non-selection in the team hadn’t gone well with Indian team supporters as they felt the spin wizard could’ve helped the side with his experience and talent.
In the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2022-23, Ashwin took 25 wickets in eight innings of four Tests and ended up becoming the highest wicket-taker in the competition. The veteran’s record is amazing in the West Indies as he has picked up 17 wickets in seven innings of four Tests.
The 36-year-old will look forward to bolstering India’s spin attack in the Windies tour, along with Ravindra Jadeja. During India’s tour of the West Indies in 2016, Ashwin had become the leading wicket-taker in the competition, with 17 wickets in seven innings of four Tests.
