He had to leave the camp in the middle of the Rajkot Test to be by his mother's side. On the second day of the Test match, Ashwin dismissed England's Zak Crawley to pocket his 500th Test scalp. However, hours after the feat, Ashwin went through a traumatic experience for which he had to leave the squad on an immediate basis.
