Ashwin Retirement

What is the future of spin department of India after Ashwin Retirement??

After over a decade of weaving magic with the ball and scripting unforgettable chapters for Indian cricket, Ravichandran Ashwin has announced his retirement from international cricket.

From bamboozling the world’s best batters with his carrom ball to scoring crucial runs with the bat, Ashwin's career has been nothing short of legendary. Here’s a glimpse of his incredible journey:

Test Cricket Maestro:

Wickets: 500+ scalps, placing him among the greatest spinners in history.
5-wicket hauls: 33 times—an achievement that batters around the world would rather forget!
Home Dominance: His average in India (around 22) made him the nightmare of every visiting team.

The All-Rounder:

Test Centuries: 5—because why should batters have all the fun?
Memorable knocks like his resilient 39* at Sydney in 2021, where he blocked, ducked, and frustrated an entire Australian attack to save the Test.
The Match-Winner in White Ball Cricket:

A crucial part of India's 2011 ODI World Cup-winning squad and a force in the shorter formats, Ashwin’s variations were as unpredictable as his witty comebacks on Twitter.

Unique Records:

Fastest Indian bowler to reach 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, and 450 Test wickets.
The only cricketer to dismiss Steve Smith on more occasions than Smith probably likes to remember!

Thank you, R. Ashwin, for the memories, the records, and the magic. The field may miss you, but the game will never forget you!
