Ravichandran Ashwin did the talking with his bat again as India reached 271 for six at the end of Day 2 of the third Test at Mohali on Sunday. The talented off-spinner, who is also the highest ranked Test all-rounder, came in to bat at the fall of Karun Nair's wicket with the score reading 156 for five and stiched useful partnerships with Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja to take India to safety.
Twitterati were highly impressed by the Tamil Nadu cricketer's performance and expressed their feelings in this way:

Ashwin makes batting look so easy just as he makes fielding look so uneasy #INDvENG

This time,Ashwin-Jadeja pair hurting opposition wid bat.#IndvEng
Be it with the bat or ball, Ashwin is always the man for India. A lead of 50 will be substantial with the pitch will start to deteriorate.

The value of lower-order can never be overstated. Runs from Ashwin and Jadeja have allowed India to breathe again. #INDvENG

This partnership between @ashwinravi99 and @imjadeja has been crucial for India beyond the context of just this match.
