These pacers have missed the recently concluded Asia Cup 2022. After the announcement of the world squad, one question is arising frequently as there are four spinners in the squad. Selectors have picked R Ashwin, Axar Patel, Yuzvendra Chahal, and Deepak Hooda. Although Hooda cannot get such chances to bowl. But having such several spinners is a little over quantity as the games will be occurring at Australian venues.

As we all know there will be no such help for the spinners in the Aussie pitches and conditions. For that people are saying that the selection of R Ashwin has wasted a place in the squad. But the former Kiwi skipper, Daniel Vettori shows his full support for the selection of R Ashwin. Vettori says that their experience of Ashwin will be very much helpful for the Indian side. The star Indian spinner has the adaptability quality, and he has already played too many times in Australia.

“He’s one of those guys who’s very adaptable, he understands what he needs to do in all situations. I think if he’s picked he will know how to perform. He’s been to Australia on a number of occasions. India does have a plethora of spin bowlers, a lot to choose from. The fact that most of the spinners are all-rounders as well I think that sets him apart and give the team a good balance.”

Vettori is supporting the Indian spinner’s selection in the squad as he brings the all-rounder skills to the table. Although he is not as good as Ravindra Jadeja, he could be Jadeja’s replacement in some cases. In the test matches, we have witnessed the batting performances. In the recent IPL 2022, he had a good outing with his all-rounder performances.
The former Kiwi skipper added these while he is appearing for the second edition of the Legends League Cricket. He added more by his mentioning that R Ashwin is a very adaptable guy. He shapes himself in all venue situations as well as in match situations. If he gets the chance to be in the playing XI, then he will have a clear vision of what he has to do. He has been with the Indian side several times whenever India was touring Australia.
