Ravichandran Ashwin, who completed his 400-wicket haul at the Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad, has said that he has already given up thinking about achievements and is focused on becoming a better cricketer. Ashwin’s performance in the Test series against England has been very impressive so far. Off spinner has taken maximum 24 wickets in three matches of this series. At the same time, Ashwin played an amazing century in the Second Test, played in Chennai.

At a virtual press conference, Ashwin was asked if he could surpass Anil Kumble’s 619 wickets in the coming years. Ashwin said, ‘If you look at it practically, it’s only 218 wickets away. However, I have stopped thinking about these achievements. “Whenever I get off the field, I try to be a good cricketer,” the Indian off-spinner said. He said, ‘What’s more important is what I can do, how can I get better, what can I do more for the team because whenever you are in the team, especially now I play Test cricket. Going back, I contribute to the team.

Ashwin said, ‘I want to be better as a personal man and a cricketer. Maybe this is why I am so happy and enjoying my game and this is the reason why I have worked my best over the last 15 years. I want to continue this step and not think too much about anything else. In the third match played at the Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium, Ashwin and England’s Akshar Patel scored 112 in the first innings and only 81 in the second.
