Indian spinner, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760.
The 25-year-old has proved his mettle in the shorter version of the game since making his debut last year and his excellent contributions meant that he was awarded a place in the Test team ahead of the highly experienced, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Harbhajan-Singh-c61453.
Ashwin duly obliged and stuck to his task with considerable ease, grabbing nine wickets in the match. He took three in the first innings before bamboozling his opponents to grab a six-for in his second outing to give the Indians the head start in the three-
Test match series.
The spinner bowled well in tandem with left-armer, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/PP-Ojha-c2198, who finished with seven scalps for the day. Ashwin was pleased with his performance, although did not expected to grab the major crunch of the Windies batting line-up.
"I expected to get a few wickets but not so many," Ashwin said. "It helped that (left-arm spinner) Pragyan Ojha was bowling so many maidens from the other end."
The next five-day game between the two sides start on the 14th of November, which gives Ashwin the time to tie the knots with childhood sweet heart, Preethi http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Narayan-c78616. Both had been engaged for over a year and now will embrace each other in a close
family gathering on Sunday.
The Player of the Match was simply delighted with his performance, which has given him an early wedding gift.
"I don't know if it's a gift for me and my wife before marriage but it is a very happy feeling to go into my wedding with such a performance," Ashwin said.
Seeing his Men In Blue stars getting married habitually in recent weeks, which earlier saw opener, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MS-Dhoni-c2028 has added his say by welcoming the duo the elite club.
“There is a right age to get married. I am happy for Ashwin and Gambhir. I welcome them to the elite club,” added Dhoni.
One wishes Ashwin a happily married life and success in his endeavours.
