Holkar Stadium and the fear of R Ashwin

The talk of holding this match on a red clay pitch at Holkar Stadium has come to the fore. In such a situation, both spin and bounce bowling will be amazing here. Bounce is more on red clay wickets as compared to black clay wickets. The wicket remains fast and later on there is also spin. This is the reason why the fear of Team India’s spinner R Ashwin is already in the mind of the Australia team. Ashwin has taken 14 wickets in the two matches so far. But his figures on Holkar’s pitch are even more intimidating. Ravichandran Ashwin has taken 18 wickets in 4 innings of 2 matches on this ground. He has taken 5-5 wickets 2 times while 10 wickets once on this ground.
