He is the first Indian bowler who has a realistic chance to get to 300 test wickets at an average of 22.Happens very rarely though, in reality. He has very average new ball figures. He does get wickets later on though and is awesome at it.

Not even the best spinner playing in this game. Axar has bowled more overs and taken more wicketsWAFG!!!
Best spinner in the world, easily since Herath retired. And actually improved his SENA bowling. Well done.
Third best in this game behind Axar and Root imoNot even the best spinner playing in this game. Axar has bowled more overs and taken more wickets
But yea WAFG
Out of the 35 bowlers to have taken 300 or more wickets, 24 have an inferior strike rate than Ashwin and 16 of them are fast bowlers. No spinner has a better strike rate than he has. Muttiah Muralitharan comes the closest with a strike rate of 55.0.
Ashwin has taken 21,242 balls to take 400 wickets, which makes him the fourth-quickest bowler ever to the landmark. Only Dale Steyn, Richard Hadlee and Glenn McGrath have got to 400 wickets in fewer deliveries. Rangana Herath is the quickest spinner after Ashwin, having taken 23,835 deliveries.
Seemed like many straight balls got the wickets..That was a pretty un SENA pitch though tbf
Jadeja has lost only 1 test at home.So, Ashwin has played 47 games at home of which team has only lost 4. In comparison, Warne played 69 games at home of which team lost 7. And Murali played 73 games of which team lost 14. Their respective loss % is:
Ashwin = 8.5%
Warne = 10%
Murali = 19%
I mean this is ridiculous number.
The true GOAT.Jadeja has lost only 1 test at home.
Pune test
5 years later here we are...Randomly dropping Ashwin in those overseas tests was dumb as **** and I said so at the time.
