Indian cricket team's veteran spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has suddenly withdrawn from the ongoing third Test match against England in Rajkot due to a family medical emergency. Just a few hours before this, he had become the second Indian bowler after Anil Kumble to take 500 Test wickets. 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.
BCCI has given an update
Earlier, BCCI had given an update on this development late on Friday night. BCCI had said in the statement, 'Ravichandran Ashwin has withdrawn from the Test team with immediate effect due to a family medical emergency. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and the team fully support Ashwin in this challenging time. The Indian Cricket Board did not reveal the exact reason for Ashwin's withdrawal and requested everyone to respect the cricketer's privacy.
