County Championship: Decoding the stats of Ravichandran Ashwin
Here are the stats of Ravichandran Ashwin in County Championship

Indian spinner Ravichandran Ashwin made headlines with his phenomenal performance in the 2021 County Championship. Ashwin, who represented Surrey against Somerset, registered figures of 6/27 in the second innings. The senior spinner, who was the leading wicket-taker in the recently-concluded WTC, was at his best ahead of the five-match series against England. Let us have a look at his stats in the County Championship.

In the first innings, Ashwin took only one wicket and conceded 99 runs. The tables turned in the second innings when he recorded his best figures (6/27) in County championship. These are his second-best figures in First-class cricket outside India after his 7/83 against WI in 2016. Ashwin has previously snapped up two six-wicket hauls in the competition (both against his current team Surrey).
