I have tried to stay humble through the good periods of my career: Ravichandran Ashwin

Ravichandran Ashwin made a return to the Indian T20I side after a gap of more than 4 years in India’s World Cup encounter against Afghanistan. The senior off-spinner scalped 2 wickets in the 4 overs that he bowled and gave away only 14 runs as well, to help India beat their opponents by 66 runs.

And now, Ashwin has said that life is a cycle that is not completely in anyone’s hands. Ashwin also opined that whenever he had been in good form, or whenever he has gone through rough periods in his career, he has learnt to embrace the pattern in his life.

“Life is a circle. For some people, it is a small one, for some people, it is a large one, which is definitely not in our hands. Whenever I have had a very good form, or it has been the other way, it is a pattern that I have embraced in my life,” said Ravichandran Ashwin after the match between India and Afghanistan.

Even Shane Warne has said you get success only thirty-three percent of the time: Ravi Ashwin

Ravi Ashwin also added that he has learnt to stay humble during the good periods of his career and even said that the legendary Shane Warne had said a person is successful only thirty-three percent of the time and the iconic Sachin Tendulkar had also made a statement of a similar nature.

“So, staying humble through good periods of success is a statement that a lot of people make, but I have firmly embraced it and I have lived it and Shane Warne has also said that you get success only thirty-three percent of the time and even Sachin has also echoed that at some stage of his career. So, who am I, I am no different,” concluded Ravi Ashwin.

The Indian side is currently placed at 4th place in the points table in Group 2 in the Super 12 stages of the tournament and has won only 1 out of the 3 matches that it has played.
