Player like Ashwin priceless in the Test side - Kohli - chairman - 09-27-2016
India's Test captain Virat Kohli hailed R Ashwin's impact and Ravindra Jadeja's relentlessness after India's 197-run win over New Zealand in the series and season opener in Kanpur. For a while now Ashwin has hovered around the top in the ICC bowlers' rankings, trading it with Dale Steyn and James Anderson. He is the top-ranked Test allrounder. In India's win he took 10 wickets for 225, including a six-for in the second innings. Jadeja, on the other hand, took a five-for in New Zealand's first innings, scored 42 crucial runs with the tail in India's first-innings and a quick half-century to set up a declaration in the second.
