#3 Ravichandran Ashwin

Referring to the spinning nature of Indian pitches, the Indian side has always played with two main spin bowlers. Earlier, the spin duo for India was formed by Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja. But this duo has now been replaced by Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal in the past few months.
During his peak time, Ashwin was the go-to spin bowler for India in crucial situations. With his ability to turn the ball in both the directions, he bagged the wickets of many legends in his career. His carrom ball was the most difficult one for the opposition to judge. But suddenly, Ashwin has lost his charm in this format while securing his place in the Test format. After the youngsters entered the ODI team, Ashwin has failed to find a place for himself.
He was at his best in his golden era as he picked 150 wickets in his ODI career with an average of 32.91. It has been a year now since Ashwin last played in ODI and now it seems impossible for him to make a comeback.
