The greatest accomplishment of Ravichandran Ashwin is his ability to consistently win Test cricket matches.

With the most player of the series accolades in Test cricket and the second-highest five-wicket hauls in an innings, Ravichandran grabbed 537 wickets in Test cricket, ranking second only to Anil Kumble as his nation's top wicket-taker.The spiritual quest produced excellent results. He claimed the most player of the series honors in Test cricket, the second-highest five-wicket hauls in an innings, and 537 wickets in Test cricket, ranking him second only to Anil Kumble as his nation's top wicket-taker. He was one of India's greatest match-winners in the longest format, as seen by his strike rate (50) and average (24), which are the best of any Indian spinner in any period. Not to minimize the six hundreds and fourteen half-centuries interspersed with spectacular cover drives, but Ashwin, the match-winning spinner, dominates his fellow supporting cast members.

He was maybe the most complete off-spinner India has ever produced, fusing post-modern devilry with traditional virtues and classicism and neo-classicism. While standing in the past, he leaped forward and welcomed the future. The experts were mesmerized by his bowling, which included lovely drift, spectacular drops, and enormous side-spin. He also experimented with action and release points, flicked the ball with his index finger, reverse-flitted the ball, bowled seam-up, and occasionally broke his legs. He disorganized the various batsmen's plans and unpeeled the many layers of spin-bowling.He eliminated the best, including Steve Smith, Joe Root, and Kane Williamson, and bowled to the best. He was the undying kryptonite of a left-hander. Ben Stokes (12), David Warner (11), Alastair Cook (9) and, most notably, his stunning dismissal of Kumar Sangakkara four times in 23 balls during the final series for Sri Lanka were among his bunnies.He was a tribute to all the different types of spinners that India has created. He was as lively as Harbhajan Singh, as stoic as Anil Kumble, and as classical as the legendary quartet. There was artisanship, grit, artistry, and magic. The search for spin bowling's ultimate meaning and purpose, however, was at its core.
