Over the last two years, in spin-friendly conditions of the subcontinent, Ashwin has been sensational, to say the least, having broken a plethora of records.
In home Tests, Ashwin has taken 216 wickets in 34 matches at an average of 22.46, but away from home, his average rises to 31.75, with 84 wickets in 20 matches.
The last trip to South Africa proved to be a disappointing one for the off-spinner and he will hope to put up a better show this time around.
