Ravichandran Ashwin faces online debate after naming his top three India Test batters and excluding Sunil Gavaskar from the selections, according to the reporting.
The outlets describe the reaction as “stunning” and highlight that Gavaskar is widely regarded as one of India’s greatest Test batters, making his omission notable to fans. The coverage centers on the fact that Ashwin’s list does not include Gavaskar, prompting discussion about player rankings and criteria for greatness.
Because the provided sources focus primarily on the controversy rather than detailed selection criteria, the accounts do not consistently elaborate on why Ashwin made the specific choices beyond the act of excluding Gavaskar. The overall common ground across the coverage is that Ashwin’s public top-three picks for India’s Test batting are met with disagreement on social media.
