The wizard with the ball, Ravichandran Ashwin is one of India’s all-time spin great. Ashwin is a clever operator with a ball who can turn it big time and also deceive the batsman. His home record is phenomenal but recently he has also produced wonderful performances in overseas games.

In the 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar trophy Down-Under, Ashwin bowled beautifully, getting the better of Steve Smith thrice and Marnus Labuschagne twice. Overall, Ashwin has been contributing immensely to India’s chances, picking 71 wickets in 14 matches making him the highest wicket-taker of the championship.

He has picked these wickets at an average of only 20.33 and strike rate of 46.4. His best bowling figures of 7/145 came against South Africa in Vishakhapatnam 2019 and has scaped 5 wicket-hauls 4 times in total. Ashwin also has a lot of other international records to his name and has already achieved legendary status to quite an extent.
