5th Test: 'Learnt That There Is No End To Picking Up New Skills From Ashwin', Says Shubman Gill
With Ravichandran Ashwin: With Ravichandran Ashwin taking the field for his 100th Test match through the last game of the series at Dharamshala, top-order batter Shubman Gill said he’s learnt from the veteran India off-spinner that there is no end point about picking up new skills.
Ashwin, who debuted in November 2011, becomes the 14th Indian player to play 100 Test matches for India. The veteran off-spinner also becomes just the second bowler after Muttiah Muralitharan to achieve 500 wickets in less than 100 Test matches.
“He is a terrific, terrific bowler and more importantly, he’s someone who is always wanting to improve and add new skills in his game be it batting or bowling. That’s one thing I have learned from him that even though you have played for India for so many years, you still want to add something new to your game and make a difference to your skillsets. That’s why he’s one of the best spinners that the world has ever seen,” said Gill to JioCinema.
