I always look to attack, says Ravichandran Ashwin – Cricket News Update
India’s young off-spinner, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/R-Ashwin-c2228, is satisfied with his recent performances in international cricket and expressed that he always looks to be aggressive.
The 25-year-old cricketer from http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Zimbabwe-c3045 in 2010, impressing the cricket analysts with his variations. Since then the off-spinner has been a permanent member of the
Indian side in the shorter formats of the game.
After a run of poor performances by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760 at home.
The Indian skipper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MS-Dhoni-c2028, has immense confidence on the off-spinner’s abilities and throws the ball to him whenever his side requires a breakthrough.
Ashwin expressed that he is used to bowling in all sorts of circumstances and is happy with his showings in international cricket so far, although some of the pundits believe that the youngster is yet to unleash his real potential
at the global arena.
The lanky bowler has so far picked up five victims in the ODI series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758 and is third on the list of the leading wicket-takers. The budding cricketer is delighted with his performance and vows to be consistent in the
future as well.
"I have been entering the bowling fray in different situations, I think I have done my job reasonably well. The ball has been coming out of my hand quite well. As far as a bowler is concerned, that's what you have to look at. And
the numbers also have not been bad,” he expressed.
Most of the finger spinners in the modern-day cricket are afraid to flight the ball but Ashwin is different and is always looking to attack the batsmen and pick up wickets, rather than focusing on just containment.
"The mindset is always to attack," said Ashwin. "Unless I attack and get wickets, I don't think I will be in any position to dictate terms in a game. I have been looking to throw up the ball and extract whatever is there in the wicket."
