NEW DELHI: More than 100 Tests and over 500 wickets. Ravichandran Ashwin has fought hard to deliver and drive himself past those milestones to sit among India's leading bowlers. And the veteran off-spinner is far from done, despite being 38 and in the twilight of his career.
Ashwin is once again proving to be the thoroughbred to beat in the home straight of the 2023-25 World Test Championship (WTC). India's last stretch of 10 Tests to conclude this WTC cycle began with the two-match home series against Bangladesh, which Ashwin bossed with 11 wickets, including a six-wicket spell.
