Premier off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin on Tuesday agreed that having a limited number of Test centres helps the players but fell short of endorsing the idea for India, saying it was above his pay grade to comment on that.

Rohit's one-handed catch in the Kanpur Test drew plaudits from the Indian cricketing fraternity, with the effort also becoming a top topic of discussion among commentators and experts.
