Team India and England are up against one another in Ranchi for the fourth test match of the series. After the play of day three got over, team India clearly dominated the test match and are on the cusp of defeating the visitors.
However, after the play of day three got over, team India’s ace spinner made some remarks about his knee issue, which he has been facing.
Ashwin has been one of the prominent faces of the Indian test set-up and recently became India’s leading wicket taker on home soil, surpassing Indian legend Anil Kumble.
After the match got over, Ashwin said, “For some strange reason, my knee has been acting up. It just takes me 10–12 balls to warm up. I had a warmup before getting in as well.”
Ashwin further stated, “So once I got my length right, that is when I wanted to try it (carrom ball) because I did not want to give away extra runs because we were chasing last, so every single run to chase is a big bonus.
Apart from Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav also impressed everyone with his performance, as the leggie went on to pick up four wickets in the second innings.
Speaking of Kuldeep, Yadav Ashwin said,” I thought Kuldeep bowled brilliantly. What I loved about Kuldeep today was the way he worked on his run-up, momentum, and all that sort of stuff. We all know how much revs he can put on the ball and what skill he has. The change of pace changes the trajectory, which he is willing to do now. Happy for him. I just stole the fifer away from him. That is how the game goes.”.
Team India needs 152 runs to win the Ranchi test.
