Ravichandran Ashwin, one of the most prolific bowlers in Indian cricket history, recently opened up about his decision to retire from international cricket, citing a lack of motivation and a desire to spend more time with his family. However, his exit was not without controversy, as Indian cricket legend Kapil Dev questioned Ashwin's decision, claiming that he deserved a better send-off.
Ashwin, who finished his career as India's second-highest wicket-taker in Test cricket and all forms of international cricket, was taken aback by Kapil Dev's comments. In a recent interview, Ashwin refuted the notion that he was seeking a grand farewell, stating that he had made his decision to retire based on his own personal reasons, and not to seek attention or accolades.
The debate surrounding Ashwin's retirement has sparked a wider conversation about the culture of Indian cricket, with some critics arguing that the sport has become overly focused on individual personalities and celebrity culture. Ashwin, who has always been known for his humility and down-to-earth demeanor, has refused to get drawn into the controversy, stating that he is simply looking forward to spending more time with his loved ones and pursuing his passion for the game in other ways.
Despite the controversy surrounding his exit, Ashwin's legacy as one of the greatest bowlers in Indian cricket history remains unchanged. With over 700 wickets to his name, Ashwin is widely regarded as one of the most successful bowlers in the history of the sport, and his contributions to the Indian team will never be forgotten. As the cricket world continues to debates the merits of Ashwin's retirement, one thing is certain: his impact on the sport will be felt for generations to come.
