NEW DELHI: Former cricketer Monty Panesar on Wednesday expressed admiration for Ravichandran Ashwin's remarkable career, recognising the 38-year-old as one of India's finest spin bowlers.
The cricket community was taken aback when Ashwin, alongside India captain Rohit Sharma, announced his retirement. Prior speculation had grown after cameras captured a poignant exchange between Ashwin and Virat Kohli on the Test's final day.
