India's off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has said that he is fighting his own benchmark, as his overseas Test performance is not as good compared to his performance in India. Ashwin is in the list of India's most successful spin bowlers, who have performed well for the last several years. However, with all the Test series that India have played outside Asia in the last several years, Ashwin has got a chance to play all the matches of the series just once.

Speaking to ESPNcricinfo, R Ashwin said, "Look, there is one thing that is absolutely true. Actually, I am fighting my own benchmark. All the matches I have won for my country and myself have been successful. And with all the excellence I have shown, I have always been measured according to India's performance on a foreign tour, which is a big thing. " Ashwin has not found a place in the ODI and T20 team for quite some time, but he is playing IPL and domestic cricket continuously. Recently, R Ashwin played the first Test match when he visited New Zealand, but Ravindra Jadeja was given a chance in the second Test match. After touring the West Indies in 2016, Ashwin has played 12 Test matches outside Asia, taking 44 wickets at an average of 27.65. Meanwhile, to improve his skills, spinner R Ashwin has also played county cricket.

Ashwin has said, "After playing a lot of matches in England, I have realized that it is not easy for the spinner to bowl in foreign conditions and repeat the same number at home. The first thing is that you have to be there at the right time." Exact and good bowling is required. The other thing is that you need a bit of luck. When I had that South Africa match after 2014 (December 2013), I considered their numbers very seriously and those numbers grew very well ".
