Following his good present with the bat and the ball towards England within the second Test on the MA Chidambaram Stadium, veteran off-spinner R Ashwin climbed as much as the fifth place amongst all-rounders in ICC Test Player Rankings. Homeboy Ashwin hit 106 in India’s second innings and plucked eight wickets on a rank turner as India outclassed England in Chennai to stage the four-Test collection 1-1.
Ashwin’s latest performances towards Australia and England have elevated his possibilities of making a return to India’s limited-overs squad. However, legendary India opener Sunil Gavaskar feels in any other case. 

Gavaskar is not positive about Ashwin making a comeback in white-ball cricket, with all-rounders like Hardik Pandya and Ravindra Jadeja already being current within the limited-overs squad. Ashwin’s final look for India in limited-overs format was again in 2017 towards West Indies.
“I somehow don’t think he will now make a comeback in the Indian limited-overs team because India have found in Hardik Pandya the all-rounder at No.7, there is Ravindra Jadeja and then they will have three seamers or maybe one spinner and two seamers,” stated Gavaskar.

“I don’t think he will fit into the squad at the moment and therefore, he will be a Test match player for the next half a dozen years at least,” he added.
Ashwin had thanked the Chennai crowd after steering India to a complete win 317-run win within the second Test. Ashwin, the Man of the Match, stated that the ‘Knowledgable Chennai Crowd’ made him really feel like a hero.
“I can’t express how I feel right now, but I am so very grateful to each and everyone who has wished me over the last few days. I would also like to thank the #KnowledgableChennaiCrowd for turning up in numbers and making me feel like a hero,” wrote Ashwin on Twitter. 
The four-Test collection now shifts to Ahmedabad for the third and fourth match. The third Test will probably be be Day-Night affair, scheduled to be performed from February 24 on the newly constructed Sardar Patel Stadium in Motera. The fourth Test may even be performed at this venue.
