Earlier, India captain Virat Kohli said that Ashwin had been rewarded with selection in the T20 World Cup squad because of him reviving his white-ball game.
"Ashwin has been rewarded for reviving his white-ball skills altogether. He bowls with a lot of courage in white-ball cricket," Kohli said during a media interaction organised by the ICC.
"If you saw the IPL in the last couple of years, he's bowled difficult overs, he's bowled against the top players in the IPL, and not being shy to put the ball in the right areas. Spinners can get intimidated by the way power hitters hit the ball, but Ashwin believed in his skill set,” Kohli added.
"We felt like the way he was bowling and his variations now and his control over pace is something which is ... again a lot of experience, a guy who has played a lot of international cricket and he's at his confident best. These guys can go in there and change the game with their spells," explained the India captain.
