"When I Reached Hospital, Mom Was...": R Ashwin On 'Medical Emergency'

Lying in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of a Chennai hospital, Chitra Ravichandran was slipping in and out of consciousness but she had just one query for her son Ravichandran Ashwin when she saw him by her bedside -- "Why did you come?" Hours after becoming only the second Indian bowler after Anil Kumble to take 500 Test wickets, Ashwin rushed back to his home in Chennai during the third game against England in Rajkot after coming to know that his mother had been hospitalised following a blackout.

"No Praise Enough": Rohit Sharma's Epic Take On R Ashwin's 100th Test

No praise is enough for Ravichandran Ashwin, said captain Rohit Sharma on Wednesday, lauding the off-spinner ahead of his 100th Test as a "rare" talent critical for the team's success. The fifth and final Test against England, starting here on Thursday, is inconsequential to the final outcome of the series as India have already taken an unbeaten 3-1 lead. But it has become significant due to the 100-Test milestone set to be achieved by Ashwin and England batter Jonny Bairstow.

"Engineer Of Spin Bowling": Ex-England Star's Humongous Praise For Ravichandran Ashwin

Coming out in glowing praise of a member of his tribe and a modern-day exponent of spin, former England left-arm spinner Monty Panesar labelled Ravichandran Ashwin the "engineer of spin bowling". The fifth and final Test against England at the picturesque HPCA stadium in Himachal's Dharamshala will mark Ashwin's 100th in the red-ball format. The match will see India's spinning ace crossing another major career milestone after picking up his 500th wicket in the third Test at Rajkot. In a career spanning more than a decade, the 37-year-old tweaker has bagged 507 wickets across 99 Tests at a staggering average of 23.9 and an economy of 2.79.

"Why Others Get More Games To Fail, I Get One?": R Ashwin's Explosive Remark Ahead Of 100th Test

Indian cricket team spinner Ravichandran Ashwin will play his 100th Test match as India take on England in the final game of the five-match series in Dharamsala on Thursday. Ashwin, who is only the second Indian bowler after Anil Kumble to take 500 Test wickets, has been in and out of the team in recent years. India have lacked batting depth in Test cricket and during matches against SENA (South Africa, England, New Zealand and Australia) countries, Ravindra Jadeja was favoured over the veteran spinner. In a conversation with Kumble on Jio Cinema, Ashwin opened up about his struggles earlier in his career and how he made peace with the doubts surrounding his selection.

Rarity In Cricket: Ashwin, Bairstow Set For Century Of Tests Together

Test cricket will see two players featuring in their 100th game together for only the fourth time when India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin and England batter Jonny Bairstow take the field here on Thursday. The first such occasion was when former England captain Michael Atherton and Alec Stewart reached the landmark against the West Indies at Old Trafford back in 2000. The second instance involved three players as South Africa's Jacques Kallis, Shaun Pollock and Stephen Fleming played their 100th Test in the South Africa-New Zealand game in Centurion in 2006.

On MS Dhoni Comparisons, Sourav Ganguly's "Different League" Reminder To India Star

Young India wicketkeeper-batter Dhruv Jurel has played just two Tests, but he has been already compared to the legendary MS Dhoni by several former cricketers. Former India batter Sunil Gavaskar labelled Jurel as the next Dhoni, while ex-spinner Anil Kumble feels the yougster has all the tools to become as good as the former India captain. Jurel scored a match-winning 90 in the first innings of the 4th Test against England and also hit an unbeaten 39 in the second innings to help India get the win.

"Not Going To Be Easy Beating India At Home": Spin Legend Slams Bazball

India's home supremacy weathered the 'Bazball' storm as Rohit Sharma's men secured a hard-fought five-wicket win over England in the fourth and penultimate Test for a 17th consecutive series triumph in their own backyard on Monday, handing a harsh reality check to the visitors' unidimensional approach. Following the victory, former India captain and spin legend Anil Kumble slammed Bazball and stated that it is never going to be easy to beat India at home. The term 'Bazball' is derived from 'Baz', the nickname of Brendon McCullum, who is the head coach of England's Test team since May 2022.

Kishan and Iyer were not considered for central contracts by the BCCI, with the board warning players to emphasise domestic cricket if they are fit and not travelling with the national team.
