Team India’s heart was broken when Pat Cummins‘s Australia beat them in the World Test Championship (WTC) final in 2023. Over the five days they played, it’s safe to say that Australia was better than India. Both experts and fans closely scrutinized India after losing. As the ICC trophy drought went on, the media were as harsh as ever. Questions were asked about how the plans were carried out and how the team was put together. Ravichandran Ashwin absence from the team was one of the most talked-about parts of the game.
Ravichandran Ashwin had been important to India throughout the cycle and was a big reason why they made it to the final, but the experienced all-rounder didn’t play against Australia, which raised a lot of questions. Ravichandran Ashwin himself went on Twitter after the loss to praise Australia and thank the fans and support staff for their unwavering support, even though Australia had lost.
The 36-year-old said recently that the tweet was just a way to put things to rest. “When the last thing was over, I sent out a tweet because I knew I needed to put things to rest. As soon as I have an answer, I can move on. We don’t have time to waste. “Now I know a lot more about life,” Ravichandran Ashwin told Indian Express.
Ravichandran Ashwin doesn’t care about anyone on the outside.
Also, the No. 1 Test bowler thought about how playing cricket affects the mental health of his family, especially his father. He said that he has some power over the game because he plays it, but his heart-ill father doesn’t have that option.
“The more I see it, the more I can’t believe how much stress it puts on my family. My dad has problems with his heart and other parts of his body. Every game, every day, if something goes wrong, he will call me. He is upset. I find it easy to go out and play because I still have power over it. For my dad, it’s not, and he has to deal with twice as much as I do. “Everyone on the outside doesn’t matter now that we can see what happened,” Ashwin said.
