New Delhi. Spinner Ravichandran Ashwin surprised everyone by announcing his retirement in the middle of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Meanwhile, such things also started coming to light that everything is not well in the Indian team. Why would a player announce his retirement in the middle of a series? Clarification was also given by captain Rohit Sharma on this. Let us tell you about the incident related to Ashwin when Team India’s star opener Virender Sehwag and left-handed all-rounder Yuvraj Singh suddenly started kissing him a lot.
This is about the 2011 World Cup. Ashwin was a part of this team. In such a situation, he used to accompany the team in every match but he was never given a chance in the playing eleven. India won the World Cup 2011 while playing under the captaincy of Mahendra Singh Dhoni. This World Cup was played in India only. Then the semi-final match was played between India and Pakistan. Before this match, suddenly both Sehwag and Yuvraj started showing special interest in Ashwin.
Didn’t give me any feelings…
Ravichandran Ashwin told about this incident in the YouTube show named Cricket Diaries. Zaheer Khan and Virender Sehwag were also present with him on the show. This entire sentence is related to match pass. Usually a player is given six passes in a match, but in view of the high demand during the World Cup, only three passes were given. Ashwin told that he usually did not talk much to the seniors but before the World Cup match, suddenly the attitude of Virender Sehwag and Yuvraj Singh changed. He started paying attention to me in the team bus. His eyes were on my three passes.
Yuvi came to me…
Ashwin said in a light tone that he is from Tamil Nadu and does not know anyone in Chandigarh. Yuvraj came to me and started talking by saying ‘Hey Ash’. I felt that such a senior player was talking to me. Maybe now I will be given a chance in the playing eleven. Yuvi Pa asked in a unique way, Ash, do you know anyone in Chandigarh? I thought maybe he was inviting me to his house for dinner. As soon as I refused, he immediately said, give me your tickets. Then Veeru Pa came to me and directly said that you give me your 3 tickets. I replied to Virender Sehwag that I had already given one of the 3 passes to Yuvraj Singh. After which a tussle started between UV and Sehwag.
