Ravichandran Ashwin: R Ashwin made Bangladesh suffer in their own home, scored his fourth consecutive half-century

In the first innings of the Chennai Test, while batsmen like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill returned to the pavilion within 10 overs, on the other hand, R Ashwin, who came to bat at number 8, did wonders. R Ashwin scored a half-century in the first innings of the Chennai Test. Ashwin did the feat of scoring a half-century in just 58 balls. Ashwin scored a half-century for the 15th time in Test cricket and the big thing is that he played this brilliant innings in front of his father who was enjoying his batting sitting in the VIP room.

When Ashwin came to the crease, Team India had lost 6 wickets. Team India lost the wickets of Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul at very short intervals. But Ashwin came to the crease and put pressure on Bangladesh. As soon as he came, he played brilliant strokes. Head coach Gautam Gambhir was also surprised to see his shots. Ashwin seemed to be in touch and he also got good support from Ravindra Jadeja. Ashwin made a century partnership with Jadeja very fast and during this Ashwin completed his half-century in just 58 balls.

R Ashwin is known for his bowling but when it comes to Test cricket, his batting is also amazing. This player has scored five centuries in Test cricket. The big thing is that his form was also amazing. In TNPL, he made Dindigul the champion by scoring three consecutive half-centuries and now he has played another great innings for Team India in difficult times.

If we talk about Chepauk ground, Ashwin's batting shines even more. This player has played 5 test matches on this ground so far in which he has scored almost 300 runs at an average of 48. He has also scored a century on this ground. He scored this century against England. Ashwin's bowling is yet to happen. This player has taken five wickets in an innings four times on this ground and he has taken 30 wickets. Ashwin is going to hurt Bangladesh even more.
