Ashwin's Passion For Learning Never Waned Till The End, Says Sri Lankan Legend Muralitharan
Telecom Asia Sport: The most successful bowler in the history of cricket, Sri Lanka's Muttiah Muralitharan on Wednesday praised fellow off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin of India who announced his retirement from international cricket, calling him an inspiration for aspiring cricketers. Ashwin retired from international cricket with 537 wickets in 106 Tests, following the conclusion of the third Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series between India and Australia in Brisbane on Wednesday.
Ashwin hung up his boots as the second-highest wicket-taker for India behind Anil Kumble (619) and Murali said this is no mean feat.
"You must remember that Ashwin started his career as a batsman, dabbling in spin as a part-time option. He soon realised the writing was on the wall for his batting aspirations and shifted his focus to bowling. Hats off to him for making that bold pivot and achieving what he has. Reaching 500 Test wickets is no walk in the park," Muralitharan told Telecom Asia Sport (telecomasia.net) in an exclusive interview on Wednesday.
