IND vs ENG: Overwhelmed Ashwin Dedicates Man Of The Match To 'Knowledgable' Chennai Crowd

By IANS News February 16, 2021 • 14:51 PM View: 2298

Off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin on Tuesday dedicated his Man-of-the-Match-winning all-round performance in the second Test against England to the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium 'Chepauk' crowd in his home city. He captured eight wickets in the match and scored a century to propel India to a 317-run win.

"I watched the cricket from these very stands here in 'Chepauk' when I was eight or nine years old. My father would bring me here for any Test match and I would dream about getting a chance to walk on this ground or at least play one game," said Ashwin in Tamil in the post-match presentation ceremony.
