Ravichandran Ashwin is not only a spin great. But he is a thinker. A strategist. A motivator. In his early days. The young Ashwin was one bowlers who never shied away from trying out variations in his bowling. so much so that even the great MS Dhoni had to ask him to reply more on his stock delivery. Ashwin went on to become one of the greatest spinners in the history of Indian cricket. The amount of research that he did in decoding a batter's technique is insane.

While the return of India stalwarts Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, among others, to the domestic circuit has grabbed the eyeballs of cricket experts and fans alike, former India cricketer-turned-pundit Aakash Chopra has drawn out a major talking point.

'Weakness He Had In 2012 Still There': Ex-India Star's Big Verdict On Virat Kohli

Star batter Virat Kohli is playing his first Ranji Trophy match in over 12 years with Delhi currently taking on Railways at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. Many fans had arrived at the venue in the early hours, hoping to secure the best possible view of the former India captain.

Gautam Gambhir's Childhood Coach Picks Rohit Sharma Over MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli As Best Captain, Says...

India head coach Gautam Gambhir and Test and ODI captain Rohit Sharma haven't gotten off to the best of starts, at least when it comes to the results on the pitch.

Is Short Ball Sanju Samson's Nemesis? Kevin Pietersen Says "On Occasions You Get Stuck..."

Sanju Samson is having a poor form in T20I cricket. The right-handed batter has scored only 34 runs across three innings at an average of 11.33 and a strike rate of 103.03 in India's ongoing five-match series against England. Samson started with a positive knock of 26 but scored only 5 and 3 in his next two innings, respectively. More than the runs, the matter of concern is that he was dismissed in almost similar deliveries to the same bowler -- short balls from Jofra Archer. Samson tried to pull the England pacer on all three occasions and a failed attempt saw him losing his wicket.

As Michael Vaughan Trolls Harry Brook After Rajkot Failure, R Ashwin Enters Chat: "Foggy..."

England batter Harry Brook is yet to fire with the bat in the ongoing five-match T20I series against India, registering three low scores so far in as many innings. Much more than his performances, Brook has come under the scanner for blaming "smog" for his failure in the series-opener in Kolkata. Despite clear air during the games in Chennai and Rajkot, Brook has not able to create much of an impact. India mystery spinner Varun Chakravarthy bamboozled him in Kolkata and Chennai, before Ravi Bishnoi, another wrist spinner, outfoxed him at Rajkot on Tuesday.
