"R Ashwin And...": Ex-India Coach Predicts CSK To Release Rs 13 Crore Star
Former India batting coach Sanjay Bangar feels veteran all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin could get released by Chennai Super Kings (CSK) ahead of the next Indian Premier League (IPL) auction. With just five wickets in seven matches, Ashwin has failed to justify the Rs 9.75 crore sum CSK paid to re-sign him at the IPL 2025 mega auction. With CSK crashing out of the playoff race on Wednesday, following the loss to Punjab Kings (PBKS) at home, Bangar predicted that CSK might release Ashwin and pacer Matheesha Pathirana to free up their purse for the IPL 2026 mini auction.
