“Ashwin’s consistent wicket-taking, even in helpful conditions, have helped to put his team ahead in a very important series. His century in the second Test was as critical as it came when England were trying to claw their way back into the match. That knock ensured that India shut the door on the opposition,” said Ian Bishop, who represents the ICC Voting Academy.
