Speaking about the spin attack, the former off-spinner feels India should go with the three spinners and believes Kuldeep Yadav should get the nod over Saransh Jain. Ashwin feels Kuldeep deserves a proper chance and should play both Tests before the team decides his future.
Ashwin added, “You have to give Kuldeep a chance. He deserves the chance to succeed or fail. Give him both games and then decide. He has the skill and ability. He will be feeling pressure, as he has not played and needs confidence, so the captain and management have to rally around him.”
