December 19, 2024

Few bowlers have had an impact on Indian cricket as deep and for as long, as Ravichandran Ashwin.

India's second-highest wicket-taker in Tests, with 537 scalps in 106 matches after Anil Kumble (619 wickets in 132), announced his retirement from international cricket on Wednesday, soon after India's third Test against Australia in Brisbane ended in a draw.

The timing of the decision—the series is tied 1-1 with Tests in Melbourne and Sydney to go—came as a surprise, and some questions still need answering for clarity to emerge about what led to him taking this call.
