Walk The Talk With Ravichandran Ashwin, Cricketer, India
"...if you had to pay 1000 Dollars and go watch a bowler, I'd rather go and watch Shane Warne," said Ravichandran Ashwin on this week's episode of Walk The Talk. Having finished 2015 as the No. 1 bowler on the ICC Test rankings, Ashwin feels bowlers must not be afraid to experiment. On the question of Indian bowlers under performing on overseas pitches, Ashwin says that it is only a notion and the current team focuses only on winning games and that's all that matters. Although the Indian cricket team is led by Mahendra Singh Dhoni in One Day Internationals and by Virat Kohli in Tests, Ashwin istinguishes the former as a quiet strategist while the latter being enthusiastic about the game and the team. On his ontemporaries, Ashwin reveals how Ajanta Mendis influenced his bowling tricks. Ashwin also feels it is impossible to bowl a "doosra" with a straight arm and it could soon be a dying art.
