Very Difficult To Be Friends” With India Teammates, R Ashwin Explains Why
Ravichandran Ashwin explained his ‘colleagues not friends’ comment, revealing why it is difficult for Indian teammates to be as close to each other as the previous generation’s players were.
It wasn’t too long ago that Ravichandran Ashwin left Indian cricket lovers shell-shocked with his statement suggesting the Indian players are more ‘colleagues than friends’. While Ashwin himself doesn’t find anything ‘negative’ in the equation, some former cricketers were also surprised to see how things have evolved within the team over the years. Touching upon the subject again, Ashwin said that there’s some difference between what he said and what people are understanding. He also explained why it is difficult for Indian players to be friends these days.
