Legendary all-rounder Kapil Dev has said that he is highly dissatisfied with star spinner Ravichandran Ashwin’s abilities in T20Is.
Ashwin hasn’t given me the confidence: Kapil Dev
“Until now, Ashwin hasn’t given me the confidence. He picked up wickets today but it didn’t look as if he got them. In fact, batsmen iss tarah out huye ki unhe khud bhi 1-2 wickets lete huye sharam aa rahi thi. He was hiding his face. Picking up wickets obviously gives you that confidence but the Ashwin we know, we haven’t seen him show the same rhythm,” Kapil said on ABP News.
“It depends on the team management. If they have the confidence on Ashwin, it’s good. He has played the entire tournament so he can adjust if need be. But if you want to surprise the opposition, they can always turn to the wrist-spinner (Chahal). Whoever wins the confidence of the management and captain, will play,” he added.
Ravichandran Ashwin picks three wickets in his fours against Zimbabwe in the last game of Team India’s group stage, he finishes his spell as 3/22 and going forward to Semi Final against England at Adelaide with good form.
