Watch: World No. 1 bowler Ashwin revisits childhood days by playing 'gully cricket'

He may be the best bowler in the world at this point in time, but like any other normal Indian he can't resist the temptation of playing street cricket or as they say, gully cricket. Yes, we are talking about spin sensation Ravichandran Ashwin, who was reliving his childhood days after getting a much-deserved break from the national team.

The Tamil Nadu lad, who ended up with 27 wickets in the recently concluded New Zealand series and rose to the top of bowlers' rankings, is back home after Indian selectors decided to rest him for the upcoming ODI series against the Kiwis. 

Ashwin took to Facebook to post a video of his friends who are seen playing cricket on the streets under the lights. The spin wizard was holding the camera and standing in the wicket keeper's position while filming the event. "Back to the wonderful old days!!street cricket. Bliss," wrote Ashwin.

Ashwin then uploaded a picture of the group which was with him for the fun filled game.
