Chennai : Ravichandran Ashwin, the senior spinner of the Indian team, was currently playing for Dindigul in the Tamil Nadu Premier League. Also, he played as the captain of the team and was the main reason for winning the trophy.
At the same time, the Indian team is on a tour with the Sri Lankan team. While the Indian team won the first T20I series 3-0, in the next 3-match ODI series, they drew in the first match and lost the second match.
Even with a spin bowler like Kuldeep Yadav in the team, the fans started saying that they needed an experienced player like Ashwin after this defeat of the Indian team. Having proved his ability earlier, he participated in the T20 World Cup series held in 2022.
It is noteworthy that he had captured 6 wickets. Also, the very next year, he was included in the Indian team for the 2023 50 Over World Cup. Moreover, Ashwin played only in the match against the Australian team. After that he did not play any match in that series.
It can be said that he has proved himself as a great all-rounder by taking 9 wickets in bowling and 252 runs with 3 half-centuries in batting in the recently concluded TNPL series.
Considering this, the fans are saying that they will give Ashwin a chance in the ODI series in the 50 over Champions Trophy series to be held next year.
Also, Indian fans are saying on the internet that Gautam Gambhir, who is the current coach of the Indian team, should give Ashwin a chance not only in Tests but also in ODIs.
After all this, if there are many all-rounders in the team, will Ashwin get a chance in the Champions Trophy? Will Gambhir lend a hand? Will Ashwin seize the opportunity? It should be seen depending on that.
