Ravichandran Ashwin’s father, in an exclusive interview with CNN News18, claimed that his son’s retirement from international cricket was driven by years of humiliation. "He was humiliated for a long time," said Ravichandran. Despite Ashwin's impressive record, he struggled to secure a regular spot in the playing XI, which may have contributed to his decision. The family was shocked by the sudden announcement, but Ravichandran hinted that Ashwin’s breaking point had come due to the emotional toll. Ashwin retires with 765 wickets, becoming India’s second-most successful bowler in Test history.
