Ashwin warms up ahead of Oz test
The Morning Standard
|September 20, 2023
ABOUT 12 hours after the virtual press conference on Monday night where India captain Rohit Sharma and chairperson of men's selection committee Ajit Agarkar named him in the squad for the Australia ODIs- ended, R Ashwin was at the SSN College Cricket Ground plying his craft.

The 37-year-old appeared for his TNCA league team - Mylapore Recreation Club A - against Young Stars CC in a VAP Trophy game. He wanted to spend some time in the middle before joining the India squad. His numbers at the end of the game, which MRC A won by 28 runs after posting 285/7, are a 17-ball 12 with the bat before cruising through a tight spell of 1/30 in 10 overs. However, that doesn't tell the whole story.

Flavour Factory
In 2018, Raipur brothers Akash and Ashish Agrawalla founded ZOFF Foods—short for “Zone of Fresh Foods”—with a bold idea: revive the forgotten aroma of Indian spices using zero-human-touch processing and cool grinding technology. Early skeptics were silenced when a Delhi retailer toured their fully automated, dust-free plant and came away impressed. ZOFF now employs a workforce that is 70 per cent from Chhattisgarh, with senior leaders choosing Raipur over metro cities. Its spices travel far beyond the state, reaching homes across India and even the Middle East. Running a business from a Tier II city, CEO Akash admits, has its hurdles—limited packaging vendors, testing labs, and slower freight timelines—but the benefits are clear: lower costs, access to fresh raw materials, and a community that celebrates their growth as its own.
