Indian World Cup winner Sunil Gavaskar believes that experienced Indian off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin will play a big role for the Indian team in the upcoming ODI World Cup. Gavaskar believes he has three world-class bowlers in the Men in Blue’s bowling line-up for the country’s mega event.
Ashwin was selected in the Indian ODI team for the Australia series and made the most of the opportunity and delivered good performances for the team. The all-rounder from Tamil Nadu has been included in the squad in place of injured Axar Patel and is expected to play a key role for the team in spin-friendly conditions.
In a conversation with Star Sports, Sunil Gavaskar feels that with the new ball, India has a world-class operator for the World Cup.
He also believes that Jasprit Bumrah will come back even stronger after scoring a few runs in the last ODI against Australia, and Ashwin’s presence in the middle overs will help with this attention. He added that the event will be crucial for the Men in Blue.
“Starting with the new ball, you have Mohamed Siraj and Mohamed Shami…I don’t know if all three will play in the World Cup, but these three are world-class bowlers. . We saw Bumrah suffer a narrow loss against Australia in Rajkot. He is an experienced bowler and cannot repeat such mistakes
“But that’s nothing to worry about, it’s the middle overs…how good is it for a player to play across the line if the ball doesn’t deflect, curve or bounce We know what the pitch is and here Ashwin will play a key role with his experience and skill,” said Sunil Gavaskar.
The 37-year-old could be lethal against left-handers if given the chance, as well as in most top teams such as Australia, England, New Zealand and New Zealand, as well as in the ODI World Cup there is. Pakistan has a lot of left-handed batsmen and his experience could help the team on and off the field during the World Cup.

He believes he has the ability to take wickets in the middle overs, which could be crucial for the team to reach the lower end of the mega-event total.
