Ashwin News

Ravichandran Ashwin has formally asked Chennai Super Kings to release them ahead of IPL 2026 due to his poor stint in IPL 2025. 

Ravichandran Ashwin praised Rishabh Pant's twin centuries against England, stating he should be compared to Virat Kohli and Inzamam-ul-Haq, not MS Dhoni, due to his role as a frontline batter.

Indian spinner Ravichandran Ashwin stated that Pakistan's Babar Azam "should not be mentioned in the same line" as Virat Kohli.  

Ravichandran Ashwin revealed coach Ravi Shastri's reaction after India's infamous 36-all out in the 2020 Adelaide Test. 

India won the inaugural T20 World Cup, but since then, India has not performed up to expectations, especially in the last two T20 World Cups. In 2007, the killer combo of RP Singh and S. Sreesanth helped India win the World Cup in the conditions of South Africa. Now, the T20 World Cup 2024 is here, and let's see who will pick the most wickets for India this season.  

Upon completing his century, Uday Saharan raised his bat not just in acknowledgment of the achievement but in a symbolic gesture dedicated to Lord Ram.

Top BCCI officials will review India's performance in the T20 World Cup with captain Rohit Sharma and coach Rahul Dravid today. Laxman will also attend this meeting.

Ajaz Patel on Saturday became the third bowler in the history of the game to scalp all 10 wickets in a Test innings here at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. He had achieved the feat on Day 2 of the second Test between India and New Zealand.

R Ashwin was also one of Patel's victims in his 10-wicket haul where the New Zealand spinner recorded the figures of 10-119.

All-rounder Axar Patel grabbed another five-wicket haul for India in Test cricket on day 3 of the India vs New Zealand test series going on.

Ashwin and Morgan were involved in a heated exchange after the former was dismissed by Tim Southee in the last over of the DC innings at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Tuesday.

In the second over of the game, Ashwin’s delivery hit MI skipper Rohit Sharma’s pad which prompted the spinner to appeal for LBW as he was confident that ball was going to hit the wickets.

Former Pakistan captain Inzamam-Ul-Haq criticized the vicious turning track used in the third Test. Inzamam refused to applaud Ashwin and Patel for getting the better of the English batsmen. Fourth and final Test will also take place in Ahmedabad.

Delhi Capitals off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin gave Royal Challengers Bangalore opener Aaron Finch a warning for leaving his crease in their IPL match in Dubai on Monday (October 5). The incident happened in the third over of RCB's innings, when Finch was caught well outside the crease by Ashwin at the non-striker’s end. But he didn’t attempt to ‘Mankad’ Finch and allowed him to return to his crease.

India’s Ravichandran Ashwin has suggested a “Free ball” for the bowler in case of a Mankading situation. The spinner also asked for 5 runs to be docked from the batting side in case the batsman is dismissed on the "free ball". Mankading or Mankad is a form of a run-out where the batsman can run-out the non-striker in case the latter is out of the crease prior to the delivery. Ashwin came into the spotlight when he 'Mankad' Jos Butler during the IPL last year.

KL Rahul will captain Kings XI Punjab in the 2020 season of the Indian Premier League, the franchise`s Director of Cricket Operations Anil Kumble confirmed in a press conference post the auction that was held on Thursday.

Mankading is when a batsman leaves the crease before a delivery and the bowler runs him out before completing his complete bowling action.

Ashwin took four important wickets for India during the opening day of first Test match against England.

Ravichandran Ashwin and Herschelle Gibbs were on Monday involved in a Twitter spat, in which the India offspinner could not stop himself from taking a match-fixing jibe at the former South African batsman.

Virat Kohli's double ton against Sri Lanka was followed by a 50 in the second innings as he finished with 610 runs in the series, which India won 1-0 after the first and third Test ended in draws in Kolkata and New Delhi.
