Pressure off his back, R Ashwin sees himself doing a lot in next few years

Now that the unparalleled pressure of being an Indian cricketer is off his back, R Ashwin visualises himself doing a lot more on the cricket field at least for the next few years. The 38-year-old stunned the cricketing world by announcing his retirement following the third Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. He flew back home the following day and got an overwhelming reception from the people in his hometown Chennai. In a chat with former England captains Michael Atherton and Nasser Hussain on Sky Sports, Ashwin revealed one of the reasons he retired in the middle of the series is that he did not get the same creative satisfaction out of his game. "One line I have always said when people ask me 'what is next?' I have said the day I wake up and feel that creative side doesn't have a future or direction is when I would probably give it up. "I certainly think that creative side did not have a lot of upside to explore. There are laboratories available in world cricket today. So I thoug

Buoyed by momentum, India targets ODI series triumph against West Indies

Coming off one of their biggest wins in terms of runs, fancied India will look to guard against complacency when they take on a beleaguered West Indies side with an aim to bag the three-match series in the second Women's ODI here on Tuesday. India will be entering the game on the back of a massive 211-run victory over the visitors in the series opener in which the Harmanpreet Kaur-led team ticked almost all the boxes. Every match the teams play in the coming months will be significant as the ICC World Cup is scheduled to be held in the country next year. India, who have never won a women's World Cup, are desperate to end their ICC title drought at home and they are aware that a strong build-up is extremely important for them to head into the mega event as one of the contenders alongside the 'usual suspects', Australia and England. Though India have not begun their preparations for the big tournament in earnest, having suffered a 0-3 whitewash in Australia, they bounced back in styl

Problems in India's transition: Gautam wants his team, but will he get it?

Transitions are never easy. More so when a dressing room is dotted with superstars, who are in the Twilight Zone of their glittering careers. And it's for this reason, India head coach Gautam Gambhir finds himself caught between a rock and a hard place. Indian cricket's big transition has started with Ravichandran Ashwin's retirement. And Gambhir might have to be the 'Harbinger of Doom' for some of the megastars if the currently tied Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia does not end up being decisively in India's favour in Melbourne and Sydney. While Ashwin took the hard call himself, anyone with a basic understanding of Indian cricket would know that Gambhir's decision to include Washington Sundar at the senior pro's expense was the biggest trigger. Skipper Rohit Sharma wasn't even in Perth when the decision was made. There are four big names Virat Kohli, Rohit, Ravindra Jadeja and Mohammed Shami in the Indian dressing room right now. Shami isn't playing this series but

IND vs AUS Boxing Day Test: Fans wait for Kohli's Kingly' outing at MCG

Kohli, Kohli.the chants from 90000 fervent fans still reverberate in the ear when you step into the fabled MCG, even two years after the former Indian skipper pulled off a stunning heist against Pakistan in the T20 World Cup 2022. Back then, Virat Kohli's unbeaten 82 off 53 balls helped India snatch a victory from the jaws of defeat, and now he is back at the G, looking for another redemption act. Kohli made a bright beginning to the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia with a second innings hundred at Perth. But since then he has hit the snooze mode, producing just 26 runs over the next four innings across Adelaide and Brisbane Tests. However, Kohli's travails with the bat notwithstanding, his popularity off the field has not diminished one bit, a quick tour of MCG will make you understand that fact. You will be greeted with Kohli's pictures at the ticket counter of the Australian Sports Museum. Then there are images of him kissing the Border-Gavaskar Trophy after ..
