New Delhi: Team India's spin bowler Ravichandran Ashwin has once again played a key role in Team India's victory by performing well on Indian wickets. Ashwin has achieved many new milestones by taking 12 wickets in the two-match Test series against Sri Lanka. Ashwin has also taken 6 wickets in the first Test match played in Mohali and 6 wickets in the day-night Test match played in Bengaluru. Team India has won both the matches by a big margin.

Spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has also completed his century in the Test Championship with 12 wickets in the series, leaving behind 4 players of world cricket. In Bengaluru, Ashwin caught Sri Lanka's last batsman Vishwa Fernando at the hands of Mohammed Shami to give the Indian team a big victory by 238 runs and also completed his 100 wickets in the Test championship.
