He has won a lottery: Reetinder on Ashwin's selection in ODIs vs SA

Ex-India all-rounder Reetinder Singh Sodhi said Ravichandran Ashwin has "won a lottery" after the off-spinner's inclusion in India's 18-member squad for ODI series against South Africa. "It felt Ashwin's career was almost over, that he might announce his retirement; he has got...new lifeline," he stated. Ashwin made his comeback in limited-overs cricket in T20 World Cup 2021 after July 2017.
