Ravichandran Ashwin Cricket Records: Ravichandran Ashwin, one of the country’s biggest test match winners, surprised everyone in Adelaide, Australia today by saying that this is my last day in international cricket (Ravichandran Ashwin Retirement). If we look at the form of recent days, this decision of Ashwin is shocking. In the recent home series against Bangladesh and New Zealand, his performance with both ball and bat was excellent. He is the bowler taking the most wickets in the World Test Championship. However, if we look at his overall performance, he proves to be as great a spin bowler from the 1990s till today as Shane Warne, Muttiah Muralitharan and Anil Kumble are considered to be.
