He featured in only the pink-ball Test and had an ordinary outing. He was left out in Brisbane to accommodate left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja.Shedding light on his retirement, Ashwin highlighted that it wasn't an impulsive decision. Speaking to Sky Sports (via India Today), he said:"I’ve contemplated things many times. I’ve often said the day I wake up and feel my creative side doesn’t have a future or direction, I’ll give it up. Recently, I felt that the creative side didn’t have much upside left.""I started wondering where I could open a new laboratory to experiment and explore. I realized that window wasn’t there anymore. It’s a battle inside me, figuring out how to explore these options. But I believe there are laboratories in world cricket today, so I thought, maybe this isn’t the lab for me—I’ll find another one," he added.The 38-year-old ended his Test career with 537 wickets in 106 Tests — the second-highest Indian wicket-taker in Tests, only behind Anil Kumble (619). He also picked up 156 ODI and 72 T20I wickets.
