Wishing you many more milestones in future @BCCII want to have some special memories going forward in the next 3-4 years: Ravichandran AshwinAshwin spoke to the broadcasters after reaching a special milestone in Test cricket today. He revealed that he wants to have some special memories on the field in the coming 3-4 years. He does not want to ponder too much about other things. Speaking after the Test ended in a draw, the 35-year old said:"Absolutely nothing at all, to be honest (how does it make him feel). I know these are milestones that are constantly kept on tab and it's wonderful. Rahul bhai, ever since he has taken over, he's kept saying the same thing [that] how many ever wickets you take, how many ever runs you make in 10 years time, you won't remember them. It's the memories that matter so I want to have some special memories going forward in the next 3-4 years."BCCI@BCCIHe is third on the leading wicket-takers list among Indian bowlers now but for @ashwinravi99 it is more about creating special memories than milestones. 🙌 @Paytm #INDvNZ #TeamIndia4:39 AM · Nov 29, 20217892488He is third on the leading wicket-takers list among Indian bowlers now but for @ashwinravi99 it is more about creating special memories than milestones. 🙌 @Paytm #INDvNZ #TeamIndia https://t.co/eLIjzNMeitAshwin (3/35), Jadeja (4/40) and other Indian bowlers tried their level best on a sluggish pitch in Kanpur.
