I Used To Replicate Harbhajan Singh’s Action In Junior Days: Ashwin
The 38-year-old Ashwin starred with his all-round performance to help India take a 1-0 lead against Bangladesh on Sunday at Chepauk. Following his impressive hundred on the first day of the Test that rescued India from a dire 144/6 in the first innings, the off-spinner picked up a six-wicket haul on the fourth day to spin his side a mammoth 280-run win against the visitors.
"It was huge shoes to fill for me. I used to replicate his action and bowl in junior age categories, so he was a huge inspiration. When I came into the team replacing him, I never thought we’d both coincide at the same time, but it so happened. There were constant doubts about whether I could deliver in red-ball cricket because I came through the IPL, which shaped people's perceptions," Ashwin said on JioCinema.
