Ravichandran Ashwin

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli had hung up their boots in the shortest format after winning the T20 World Cup final last year. Will they call time on their ODI careers after the Champions Trophy finale?

Ravichandran Ashwin, who retired as India's second highest wicket-taker in Tests, has always maintained high standard both off the field with his blunt and straightforward approach.

Ashwin pointed out that Pakistan’s recent batting performances shouldn’t be directly compared, as the ongoing match in Dubai is being played on a slow, sluggish surface, unlike the batting-friendly conditions in Karachi.

The player made an interesting assessment and claimed he has the skills to fill the big boots of Ashwin and Jadeja, who on multiple occasions have helped India with their bat.

The ICC event starts in Pakistan on February 19 with India playing all their matches in Dubai under a hybrid model agreement.

Jasprit Bumrah gained 14 rating points following his 9/94 in the drawn third Test at Brisbane to not only equal Ravichandran Ashwin's highest-ever 904 rating points but also consolidate his position at the top of the rankings.

Ravichandran Ashwin mentioned that he rarely celebrates his milestones in an extravagant manner and would never express his emotions by blowing kisses to his wife in the stands.

While Sydney may not be Virat Kohli’s Test swansong, there’s a very real possibility that the famous old ground graced by the likes of Victor Trumper and Don Bradman could see Rohit Sharma in India whites for the last time.

Ashwin, who made his debut in 2011 against the West Indies, quickly cemented his place in India's Test side.
