In the just finished five-match series against India, star off-spinner Ravichandra Ashwin had to wait three Tests to record a five-wicket haul. Even though he finished the series with the most wickets (26) among bowlers, he was still regarded as not playing at his best.Rohit Sharma, the captain of India, backed the seasoned player, stating that it is unfair to expect a player to perform flawlessly every time he takes the field because players are also people and can have bad days even when they give it their all.
