Yusuf Pathan and Monty Panesar engaged in some banter during a Legends League Cricket game.

Monty Panesar said that Ashwin, 38, would not have been left out in favour of younger players.

Former England spinner Monty Panesar has ended his political stint in just one week as he announced that he is withdrawing as a parliamentary candidate for George Galloway's Workers Party of Great Britain.

Monty Panesar paid the ultimate tribute to Ravichandran Ashwin for the efforts he has undertaken to add to his repertoire and reinvent himself in the game.

Former England cricketer Monty Panesar also said that if Virat Kohli was in the team then, he would have charged the visitors.

Monty Panesar believes that England cricketers should sledge Virat Kohli and try to 'mentally pinch' him in the upcoming Test series in India starting January 25.

Ravichandran Ashwin could be India's third spinner during the World Cup considering the general sluggishness of the pitches.

In 140 years of Test match history, this is the first time that the iconic South London ground is hosting a Test match in the month of June when the pitch is green and fresh.
