On the eve of the Gabba Test, a lot of Australian batters were asked to pick whom between R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja they find to be tough to face. Speaking on this question, star Australian batter Travis Head has claimed R Ashwin to be tougher to face.
Not just Travis, a majority of his batting peers have picked Ashwin to be the tougher spinner to face, with opener Usman Khawaja even calling Ashwin as a ‘metronome’.
“Probably for me, Ashwin, someone with a couple more tricks and being a lot taller and a lot quicker. Yeah, I think he’s probably the hardest,” Travis told Cricket Australia.
“Jadeja’s got a very good skill set. He’s like a metronome. He just goes bang, bang, bang, time and time again. You see Ashwin’s the cagiest. He’s the one who’s thinking out there. Every time I faced Ashwin, he’s trying to think what I’m doing, I’m trying to think what he’s trying to do,” said Usman Khawaja.
“I think Ashwin, he finds ways, he’s ultra-competitive and gets into the contest,” said wicketkeeper Alex Carey.
Most of the team has concluded Ashwin to be the tougher one to face, which speaks volume about the bowling prowess of the star spinner in itself.
