Ravichandran Ashwin broke twitter after an incredible performance against Bangladesh. Ashwin is an Indian professional cricketer who is usually known for his bowling but is quite handy with the bat as well. The Indian spinner is regarded as one of the best spinners in history and is known especially for his brilliant spells in test matches. The off-spinner has 516 wickets in 100 Test matches for India, the second-most in this format as an Indian.
The Indian bowler recently hit one of the test centuries of his career. In a game between India and Bangladesh on 19th September 2024, India were really struggling to score runs. They had lost the wickets of Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant, and KL Rahul. It felt like a collapse was loading on what looked like a tough pitch. However, Ravichandran Ashwin was not ready to go down without a fight.
Ashwin played one of the best inning of his career, hitting some absolutely wonderful shots consistently. The Indian star starting hitting boundaries with ease once he got into his groove and reached the century mark at quite a quick pace, hitting a century in just 108 balls. This article talks about this incredible feat by Ravichandran Ashwin and how twitter reacted to this fantastic century.
