4 reasons why India can beat England in England

#3 Ravichandran Ashwin – The County Specialist

Ashwin will be key to India's bowling attack now that he has taken so many wickets in England.

There were plenty of doubts whether or not the world’s best spinner would be equally effective as he is in India in England. When India toured England in 2014, Ashwin didn’t even make the starting XI but this time it is totally different. Ashwin played in the county circuit this season and was very successful with both bat and ball. In 4 matches, he took 20 wickets which include two 5-wicket hauls. These types of numbers for an off-spinner in English conditions which assist the fast bowlers are brilliant.

With the bat in 6 innings, he scored 214 runs at an average of 42.8 and a highest of 82. Ashwin has now got a feel of the conditions and can prove to be destructive against the English batsman.
