India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin featured in the latest season of the Kaun Banega Crorepati. The question was worth 25 lakh INR. Talking about the question, the host and megastar of Bollywood, Amitabh Bachchan asked who was the first Indian to take the wicket of father and son duo in international cricket. The answer was Ashwin who took the wickets of Shivnarine Chanderpaul and Tagenarine Chanderpaul.

For the unversed, Ashwin took the wicket of Shivnarine Chanderpaul in a Test match in 2011. 12 years later, the right-arm spinner took the wicket of Shivnarine’s son, Tagenarine, who also played the role of Larry Gomez in ’83 The Film’. The contestant, who was asked this question got it right and won a few more prize money.

You don’t want your tail to start so early: Ravichandran Ashwin

Meanwhile, the two-time World Champion is set to miss the ODI World Cup 2023. He hasn’t been named in the Asia Cup 2023 squad as well. Not to forget, Ashwin hasn’t been playing white-ball cricket since the T20 World Cup 2022.

Meanwhile, the Tamil Nadu player gave some solutions for the Indian team. He said that a player such as Shardul Thakur must play for the team. The former cited that the team’s tail won’t get longer as Thakur can bat.

“You don’t want your tail to start so early, and that’s why you need someone like Shardul Thakur to come and smash a few balls coming in at No. 8. But you should play your best batters and bowlers to win a match. At the same time, if you needed 36 to win from 30 balls when you are six down, you should have the ability to close down such games as well. So, that is the conundrum that India will go into ahead of the World Cup. If they play Kuldeep and Chahal together, then it gets to a situation where Kuldeep has to bat at No. 8,” Ashwin said on his YouTube Channel.
