NEW DELHI: Veteran Ravichandran Ashwin had a memorable outing in the home Test at Chepauk against Bangladesh as he bagged the Player of the Match award for his all-round heroics in the series-opening win.
After slamming a masterful ton in the first innings, Ashwin bagged a six-for in the second with clinical India romping to a massive 280-run win inside 10 sessions.
After a quick finish on the fourth day, Ashwin, the chief architect of the victory, had a reunion with his family at the ground.
In an adorable video posted by the BCCI, the 38-year-old was seen being interviewed by his wife Prithi Narayanan with his two daughters standing beside the couple.
In the video, Prithi cheekily asked Ashwin if she had anything to do with Ashwin’s on-field heroics in the Test.
