#1 Ravichandran Ashwin

Ravichandran Ashwin, India's most trusted spinner for the longest format of the game has undoubtedly been India's backbone of the spin bowling department. He is considered as one of the best spinners as he is the second fastest to take 200 Test wickets and the fastest to 250 and 300 Test wickets.
He holds the first position for the most wickets against Australia among the lot as he has taken jaw-dropping 71 wickets from mere 14 matches. He has been one of the most consistent cricketers and is only behind Harbhajan Singh and Anil Kumble for the most wickets against Australia in Tests.
Though he has struggled to perform in Australian pitches, he can turn the tides this time due to his exposure to County Cricket. He would look to continue to dominate the Australian batsmen with his carrom balls and off-cutters.
