Indian cricket team's veteran spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has suddenly withdrawn from the ongoing third Test match against England in Rajkot due to a family medical emergency.

BCCI Vice President Rajiv Shukla took to social media to give another update about the incident and wrote that Ashwin's mother was facing a medical emergency. Rajeev Shukla said- I wish for the speedy recovery of Ashwin's mother. He will have to leave the Rajkot Test and go to Chennai to live with his mother.
