A return to the Indian team for the T20 World Cup seems to have given a
new lease of life to R Ashwin's T20 International career and the
seasoned India spinner is enjoying a lot of success.

Capitals, who pointed out how successful has "Ash Anna" been in recent
times via a tweet on Thursday.

side, Ashwin, who has been out of the limited-overs side since 2017, has
taken eight wickets in four matches, Delhi Capitals pointed out in the
tweet.
"Ash Anna since his return to #TeamIndia's T20I side:
Matches - 4
Wickets - 8
Average - 10.75
Economy - 5.38
Take a bow, Master (emoticon Raising hands). #INDvNZ @ashwinravi99," the Delhi franchise wrote in their tweet.

About his performance in the Jaipur T20I against New Zealand, Ashwin said it took time to get to know the right pace to bowl at on that pitch.
"The slower you bowled there was purchase from the pitch, it's tricky how much you toss it up, the windows for attacking are less [in T20s]. Identifying the right pace took a bit of time for me. Important to see the game in isolation, 24 events [balls], the batsman is trying to play catch-up, so execute your plans," he added.
Ashwin said in the end the chase become too close for India. "We thought it was par, par-minus, 170-175 was par, at the halfway mark we thought we would cruise home," he added. - IANS
