Is Something Going Between Kholi and Ashwin

Is Something Going Between Kholi and Ashwin

Ravichandran Ashwin has yet to play a single international match this year. India has already fallen to the forefront of the FDI and T20I hierarchy, and its testing career seems to be moving in the same direction. However, while his momentum over the limited-over format justified to some extent, his treatment in the Tests are by no means explained.

It should remember that Ashwin is one of India's biggest match-winners in the Tests. Ravichandran Ashwin holds the Indian Man-of-Series record, and only six Indians have won more matches than him. His overall career in cricket testing is also imposing. To date, in 65 Tests, he has 342 wickets at 25.43 and 2,361 Races at 29.14. It is the fastest in the world with 250 and 300 test counters.

But His records have hardly changed, with India finding him for the first test underway against the West Indies in Antigua. Instead of Ashwin, India chose Ravindra Jadeja, to everyone's surprise. Ashwin's record against the West Indies is genuinely remarkable.

In The 2016 Test Series, Ashwin collected 17 wickets in four games with a game almost emptied. He won a 7 for in the very first test of this series. He also scored two centuries to win the Men's Prize in the series. In total, in 11 tries against the West Indies, Ashwin won 60 wickets at 21.85 and scored four cents to give him an average of more than 50.

It's No surprise then this cricket world is struggling to handle Ashwin's exclusion. And now many think there is a quarrel between Ashwin and Virat Kohli. Even former England champion Nick Compton felt that everything was wrong between Kohli and Ashwin. The narrative of the dispute between the two is not new, and many believe that this is the reason behind Ashwin's hatred.
