WTC Final: India Would Have Wanted Ashwin To Spin Ball Away From Australian Left-Handers, Says Ponting
Former Australia skipper Ricky Ponting has criticised India's decision to leave out Ravichandran Ashwin out of the playing eleven for the ongoing World Test Championship final against Australia at The Oval in London, saying the ace off-spinner could have been handy in spinning the ball away from left-handed batters.
Australia fielded four left-hand batters in the top seven -- Usman Khawaja, David Warner, Travis Head and Alex Carey, with the first two batters out in the first session on day one of the one-off finale. Instead of Ashwin, the top-ranked Test bowler, India have taken in Shardul Thakur, who got out Warner in the first session.
