Ashwin On Chepauk Pitch- ‘Dance na jaane aangan terra’: Ashwin’s answer to the critics of the pitch, said- Englishmen cannot play good spin

Chennai
Amidst the debate over preparing the pitches helpful to the host team, Ravichandran Ashwin has requested cricket enthusiasts and the cricket community of India to better counter such allegations. Asked whether the teams of England and Australia should accept that they could not cope with good spin bowling on turn-taking pitches, Ashwin said, “Finally we are troubled by all these things.”

He said, ‘Everyone has the right to have an opinion and whoever is giving opinion, it is his right. We are paying attention to it and see if it is working or not. He said, ‘As a cricketing community or a country, such allegations should be better dealt with. We should proudly say that we are playing good cricket.

Ashwin said that the Indian team may also have an opinion on the pitches but in foreign conditions no players or former veterans complained about the wickets taking the seam. He said, ‘I don’t have any problem with what the England cricket experts say because we too will give our opinion on the foreign tour, but we never complain.’

He said, ‘I have never seen my great players complain. Whether our coach is Ravi Shastri or Sunil Gavaskar. He made several visits and said that there was grass on the pitch but did not complain. Ashwin did not name any former English player but he was referring to former captain Michael Vaughan.

He said, “We should respect the opinion of the people but should also come to oppose it in a better way.” He said that people keep giving unnecessary advice many times and this is what happened in five years when he could not play well with the bat. Ashwin said, ‘In India we get different types of opinions but sometimes it is also not necessary. When I needed help, I took batting coach Vikram Rathore.

He said, ‘I never thought that A would say but let me say. Cameron Green made his Australia debut two months ago. Before her debut, she was considered the star of a future generation. He scored 150 runs in the entire series against India and did not take a single wicket. But how hyped was it made.

He said, ‘I don’t understand why players start finding mistakes here. Rishabh Pant was always a good cricketer and had to improve. For this he needs encouragement. There is no need to change the Pant but those who assess him will have to change. Finding mistakes will take the player more time. It is a question of mindset and we have to accept what a great cricketer he is. ‘ Asked if he would play the T20 World Cup to be held in India this year, he said, “Dream is when you are very young.” I am enjoying the process regardless of the outcome. ‘
