Just a reminder of that time when Kuldeep took five wickets in Australia, Shastri instantly declared him India's best overseas spinner. So they never really rated this guy Ashwin.

Ashwin's comments show how much he values a fifer away which you guys discredit: 'In that moment, though, I felt crushed. Absolutely crushed. We all talk about how important it is to enjoy your team-mates' success. And I was happy for Kuldeep. I have not been able to get a five-for but he has a five-for in Australia. I know how big it is. Even when I have bowled well [at other times], I haven't ended up with a five-for.'
Now, Kuldeep Yadav will be our No.1 overseas spinner: Coach Ravi Shastri
Ravi hastri made it clear that going forward, wrist spinners will be in vogue in Test cricket and Kuldeep is "already" ahead of Ashwin and Jadeja as country's No.1 spinner.

Point is Ashwin was thrown under the bus because he wasn't seen as a dangerous threat away.yeah that’s clearly why Kuldeep played every test going forward since then

Kohli in 2018: Rayudu will be our no 4 for odi wc
2019 WC time: Rayudu gets dropped because he aint 3d enough compared to ****ing Shankar for no 4 spot

next we’ll see the Southampton test brought up as an eg of Ashwin failing to perform away when Moeen Ali won the test for England if we keep going in reverse chronological order
To Ashwin it's personal. No clue why it's also personal for you smh.Just a reminder of that time when Kuldeep took five wickets in Australia, Shastri instantly declared him India's best overseas spinner. So they never really rated this guy Ashwin.

That test. Also second test SA 2018 on a sporting pitch in the 3rd innings.next we’ll see the Southampton test brought up as an eg of Ashwin failing to perform away when Moeen Ali won the test for England if we keep going in reverse chronological order

and im sure its been pointed out to you that Ashwin was injured and still was being bowled and im sure you’ll forget this again and bring it up the next time like you always do

Maybe they knew something about Ashwin we don't otherwise I would have preferred Ashwin to Jadeja in England.
Socerer 01
International Captain
yeah they knew Jadeja was a better batsman for no 7
like half of this thread’s queries and arguments can be shutdown with the answer like always being Jadeja

I think I read somewhere Ashwin himself felt he underperformed in that test. But anyways, still waiting for him to run through a side in SENA.and im sure its been pointed out to you that Ashwin was injured and still was being bowled and im sure you’ll forget this again and bring it up the next time like you always do

he did underperform in that test by overexperimenting with variations but no idea if that also had something to do with injury

Jadeja wasn't going to win you a game in England though with the ball.
