Indian all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin continues to solidify his legacy in international cricket, with a stellar performance in the recent Test series. While his bowling prowess, with over 500 Test wickets, has consistently earned him accolades, it’s his recent batting prowess that has caught the eye of Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal.

During the Bangladesh tour of India, Tamim, working as a commentator, placed Ashwin on the same pedestal as batting legends Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. “What Ashwin did was brilliant, he batted like a proper batter,” Tamim stated. “We always hear about Virat and Rohit, but in my eyes, Ashwin is equally important. His contribution to this Indian team is immense, as big as Rohit and Virat.”

Echoing Tamim’s sentiments, Indian captain Rohit Sharma praised Ashwin’s all-round contributions in the post-match presentation. “He’s the right man to answer what he does. Every time we look up to him, he’s always there for us with both bat and ball. He’s never out of the game,” Rohit said, highlighting Ashwin’s consistent impact.

Ashwin’s ability to perform in both batting and bowling roles underscores his invaluable contribution to the Indian team, a point that has often been overlooked in a country obsessed with its batters. However, with his recent performances and recognition from prominent figures like Tamim Iqbal, Ashwin’s all-round excellence is finally receiving the acknowledgment it deserves.
