R Ashwin Matches Muttiah Muralitharan's World Record With Series-Winning Show Against Bangladesh
India's veteran off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin produced an exemplary all-round show as the team secured a 2-0 series triumph against Bangladesh. After winning the first match by 280 runs, India defeated Bangladesh by 7 wickets in the second Test despite two and a half days of the Kanpur contest being washed out due to rain. Ashwin remained key to India's success against Bangla Tigers, both with the bat and the ball. He was, hence, named the Player of the Series. With the POTS honour, Ashwin went on to match a world record, held by Sri Lanka great Muttiah Muralitharan in Test cricket.
