The veteran all-rounder sent shockwaves in the cricketing fraternity as he announced his retirement from international cricket following the draw during the third Test at Brisbane. Notably, Ashwin had not featured in that match. He had played in the pink-ball Test at Adelaide Oval where he scored 29 runs across both innings and got a wicket. Before this series, he was a part of a shock home Test series loss to New Zealand, India's first in 12 years. Ashwin was one of the main architects of India's dominant Test run at home.
