When Ravichandran Ashwin chose to call time on his India career out of the blue on Wednesday after the third India vs Australia Test ended in a draw, former India coach Ravi Shastri could not help but draw parallels with the shock announcement from MS Dhoni in the dressing room that he was retiring from Tests.

Just like Ashwin retired from Tests in the middle of the series, Dhoni too said goodbye with one Test remaining. Dhoni, in fact, was captaining the team and his retirement meant that Virat Kohli had to take over the reins for the final Test in Sydney for a series which was already lost by the Indian team. Dhoni’s retirement was a shock because India had managed to draw the Test at the MCG.
Ashwin revealed his decision to retire from international cricket during the post-match press conference following India’s hard-fought draw against Australia in the Brisbane Test, leaving fans and experts alike surprised. While many speculate if the decision stemmed from the evolving demands of the game, Shastri underscored that Ashwin always embraced challenges and continually redefined his craft at every stage of his career.
Ashwin debuted in 2011 against the West Indies and quickly cemented his place in India’s Test side. Over 106 Tests, he scalped 537 wickets at an impressive average of 24.00 and an economy rate of 2.83, establishing himself as one of the greatest spinners in cricket history.
Known for his cricketing intellect and tactical acumen, Ashwin was a master in home conditions, orchestrating numerous match-winning performances. His remarkable form in 2016 saw him claim both the ICC Cricketer of the Year and ICC Test Cricketer of the Year awards, becoming only the third Indian to receive the prestigious Sir Garfield Sobers Trophy.

Ashwin was more than just a bowler; his contributions with the bat added significant value. A reliable lower-order batter, he amassed 3503 Test runs, including five centuries.

While Ashwin has bid farewell to international cricket, he remains committed to playing club cricket and the IPL. In the IPL 2025 mega auction, he was re-signed by Chennai Super Kings for Rs 9.25 crore, marking a homecoming to the franchise where he initially rose to prominence.

The spinner has expressed his excitement to reunite with stalwarts like MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja at CSK. As Ashwin transitions into this new phase of his career, his legacy as a player who constantly evolved to meet the demands of the game will continue to inspire future generations.
“I too came to know last minute, actually," Ravichandran told CNN News18. “What was going on in his mind I don’t know. He just announced. I too accepted it with full pleasure. I did not have any feeling at all for that. But the way he gave his retirement, one part I was very happy, another part not happy because he should have continued."

While Ravichandran cannot pinpoint the exact reason behind Ashwin ending his India career, he did hint that being not getting a regular spot in the playing XI despite his stellar record must have felt like humiliation.

Dhoni ke time tum naye the to naye logo ko moka mil rha tha rohit kohli ke time tumhara ho gya tha or overseas me ek hi spinner khel skta tha usme jaddu all rounder sahi hai. Dhoni ke time purane wale bhi to kehte the hme nhi khila rha wagera- sehwag GG yuvi.
Isme dhoni kohli rohit ki galti nhi hai new talent pichle wale ko piche chhod ke best perform krte hai or 11 hi khel skte hai team me.
