Ravichandran Ashwin's eagerly awaited stint in the Australian Big Bash League has been abruptly halted by a knee injury. The veteran off-spinner will miss the entire season with Sydney Thunder due to the setback.
Ashwin recently retired from international cricket and the IPL to pursue T20 leagues worldwide, including the BBL, The Hundred, and SA20. While training in Chennai, he sustained the injury, necessitating a medical procedure that unfortunately sidelines him from BBL15.
The Sydney Thunder, affected by Ashwin's absence, remains optimistic. Thunder's general manager, Trent Copeland, expressed disappointment but emphasized the potential for Ashwin's involvement later, highlighting the squad's solid championship aspirations.
