India vs Sri Lanka 2017: 2nd Test, 5 talking points

#1 Ravichandran Ashwin puts in another all-round display

Ashwin picked up a five-wicket haul and also hit a half-century

Ravichandran Ashwin is as good an all-rounder as they come in suitable conditions. With his unorthodox methods and plentiful variations, Ashwin keeps the battle engrossing with the ball. As is the norm in the sub-continent, he completed yet another five-wicket haul in Sri Lanka's first innings.

This was after he had compiled yet another useful half-century from no.6, where he is quickly establishing himself in the Test side. A sturdy player with a strong aptitude in batting, Ashwin has always been a bit of an underrated batsman. However, his recent promotion to no.6 is proof that India recognise his abilities with the willow.
