Ravichandran Ashwin set to return from injury

The Indian team management might have got some welcome news on the New Year's day as off-spinner R Ashwin has resumed his training ahead of the fourth Test against Australia that gets underway at the Sydney Cricket Ground from January 3.
While today was an off day for the Indians, Ashwin was seen sweating it out in the indoor nets at the SCG. He was accompanied by physio Patrick Farhart and trainer Shankar Basu to the SCG to check whether he is fine to go or not.
