I became a cricketer by accident, reveals Ravichandran Ashwin
The cricketer said, “I accidentally became a cricketer. I am actually a cricket lover who went on to become a cricketer. I am living my dream here, I never imagined that I will wear the Indian jersey one day and I will play."
Hyderabad: Indian cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin joined the elite club of 400 Test wickets when he removed Jofra Archer in the third Test that was over within two days in favour of India at the new-look Motera stadium.
However, the cricketer revealed that he had become cricketer by accident. Speaking to BCCI.tv with fielding coach R Sridhar, the cricketer said, “I accidentally became a cricketer. I am actually a cricket lover who went on to become a cricketer. I am living my dream here, I never imagined that I will wear the Indian jersey one day and I will play.”
“And every time I finish playing a game and if I give that winning result for the team, I just feel I am being given a blessing, but the Covid times made me feel how lucky I am to actually play for India. Even when I came back after the IPL, I never thought I would play in Australia, so that is what I said, everything has been a gift, for the love with which I play the game, the game is giving me back enough and more laurels,” he added.
