10 players for whom IPL 2019 could be decisive for a spot in the World Cup squad

#4 Ravichandran Ashwin

R Ashwin was the main spinner for India in the 2015 ICC World Cup.

Ravichandran Ashwin played the role of cornerstone for India in the World Cup of 2015 with his off spin bowling. With his ability to turn the ball in both the directions, he stunned the top batsmen of the world in that event. He also played the lead role for India from the bowling department in Champions Trophy 2013.

However, after 2017, his bowling form fell down to a great extent as he tried to bring various new variations in his bowling. During that period, 2 new bowlers namely Chahal and Kuldeep took charge of the spin bowling department of India which led to a break in Ashwin’s career.

With IPL 2019 starting from 23 March 2019, Ashwin has still got one last chance to prove himself in the white ball cricket. He could feature in India’s 2019 World Cup squad if he grabs the eyes of the selectors in IPL 2019.
