TDPel Media –
In a cricketing spectacle, Ravichandran Ashwin marked a historic achievement by claiming his 500th Test wicket, dismissing Zak Crawley during England’s match against India in Rajkot.
However, the joyous moment took a sudden turn as it was revealed that Ashwin, aged 37, hurriedly left the match to be with his ailing mother in Chennai.
Family-Driven Absence After Landmark Feat:
The 500th Test wicket milestone made Ashwin only the ninth player in history to achieve such a remarkable feat.
Despite his success on the field, he decided to prioritize his family and rushed to be with his ill mother, following in the footsteps of India’s captain Virat Kohli, who withdrew from the series for similar reasons.
India’s Test Dilemma and Potential Regulatory Challenges:

With both Ashwin and Kohli absent for family reasons, India faces a challenging scenario in completing the pivotal five-match series against England.
The absence of two key players leaves the team with 10 men, and although a substitute fielder is allowed, a like-for-like replacement poses a unique challenge within the World Test Championship.
BCCI’s Supportive Statement and Privacy Request:
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) expressed its support for Ashwin and his family in a statement.
Jay Shah, the Indian board’s honorary secretary, emphasized the importance of the players’ well-being and requested respect for the privacy of Ashwin and his family during this challenging time.
Regulatory Insights and Historical Precedents:

While changes to the playing XI are permitted after the toss but before play starts in Test matches, the regulations governing like-for-like replacements are restricted.
The unique scenario draws parallels to historical instances, such as the delayed toss in the 2009 Ashes Test for England’s Matt Prior’s intense physio treatment and the replacement of Brad Haddin by Graham Manou in Australia’s XI after the toss at Edgbaston.
The challenge for India lies in navigating this unexpected test scenario as they grapple with the absence of key players and potential regulatory limitations.
