Ashwin’s Absence A Massive Miss For India, Jadeja, Kuldeep, Suthar Can Be Ideal Line-up, Says Maharoof
Former Sri Lanka: Former Sri Lanka fast bowler Farveez Maharoof believes the absence of retired off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin will be a massive factor for India in the upcoming two-game Test series starting in Galle on Saturday. At the same time, Maharoof suggested that a spin troika of Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, and Manav Suthar could form the ideal spin-bowling combination for India in the island nation.
In two recent marquee series at home against New Zealand in 2024 and South Africa in 2025, India were left seeing their spinners being outshined by their foreign counterparts. With conditions in Sri Lanka expected to be spin-friendly, the effectiveness of their spinners will be under intense scrutiny.
“Regarding Ashwin, I think it is going to be a massive miss. I mean, not only Ravi Ashwin, even the likes of the batters like Virat, Rohit, and with the ball, Jasprit. I think these guys are legends of the game. The records speak for themselves. The numbers are brilliant and Ravi Ashwin, whenever he toured Sri Lanka, he did well.
