Kaneria feels Ravichandran Ashwin could have contributed with both bat and ball and would have been an asset to the Indian team. He was also India’s go-to bowler in the World Test Championship final and thus, Danish Kaneria was left baffled by Ashwin’s exclusion.
In a video on his YouTube channel, Danish Kaneria explained how handy Ashwin could have been at Lord’s. He also compared what variety Ravichandran Ashwin offers compared to Ravindra Jadeja.
Looking at the pitch and conditions, Ravichandran Ashwin should have played: Danish Kaneria
Danish Kaneria feels the pitch might have enough assistance in it for someone like Ravichandran Ashwin as the latter likes to extract extra bounce from the surface.
India are in a good position to post a huge first innings score. But Kaneria feels they missed a trick by not including Ashwin in their bowling plans.
Only time will tell whther India will feel the pinch of Ashwin’s absence with the ball.
