  • Ravichandran Ashwin - ICC Cricketer of the Year, 2016.

    India’s spin king won the accolade on Thursday, capping a brilliant year for the 30-year-old off-spinner.

    Ashwin used the occasion to have a chat with some of his fans on Twitter, by suggesting a Q&A session. There were a lot of questions asked with Ashwin answering as many as he could.

    One of the most interesting questions sent in was regarding Ashwin’s most memorable wicket. The Tamil Nadu cricketer’s reply wasn’t that surprising as he named the wicket of AB de Villiers in the Nagpur Test of 2015.

    Ashwin had set up de Villiers beautifully, before deceiving him with a carrom ball and caught one of the world’s best batsmen plumb in front of the stumps.

    There were a few other interesting replies from Ashwin as well, which included him using his wit to shut down a user who questioned his overseas record and he also stated that Cheteshwar Pujara and KL Rahul were his partners in crime in the Indian dressing room.
