Former India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has announced his retirement from the Indian Premier League (IPL) on Wednesday through a social media post on his 'X’ account.
-

Ashwin added that he now aims to explore playing in overseas T20 leagues.
“Special day and hence a special beginning. They say every ending will have a new start, my time as an IPL cricketer comes to a close today, but my time as an explorer of the game around various leagues begins today,” wrote Ashwin on ‘X’.
“Would like to thank all the franchisees for all the wonderful memories and relationships over the years and most importantly the @IPLand the @BCCI for what they have given me until now. Look forward to enjoying and making the most of what's ahead of me,” he added.
Ashwin ends his IPL career as the league's fifth-highest wicket-taker with 187 scalps in 221 games coming at an economy rate of 7.2. He began and ended his IPL career with Chennai Super Kings, based in his home city.
In IPL 2025, where CSK had a bottom-place finish, Ashwin played nine games - picking only seven wickets at a high economy rate of 9.13 and was even left out of the starting eleven at one point due to his underwhelming returns.

Bessie Badilla advocates for indigenous fashion
A top Filipina model for nearly five decades whose first visit to the UAE was in 1981 for the “Aureo Alonzo Fiesta Filipina World Tour Group” in Dubai, and who cat-walked for Michael Cinco at the “Dubai Fashion Week 2023,” has said that fashion from her home country has been at par with the world’s best. Bessie Badilla, whose accidental entry into the glitterati of haute couture happened, when Manila hosted the 1976 “International Monetary Fund-World Bank Annual Meeting” at the then newly-opened Philippine International Convention Centre, also said that the intensifying interest-cum-awareness of even the Filipino youth concerning their indigenous fibres and artisanship would strongly impact on the so-called colonial mentality which historians from decades back had imaginatively labelled as “300 years inside the convent (Spain) and 48 years in Hollywood (USA).
