Winning the toss, Tricci decided to hit first, but ended up dropping out of the game with a score of 120. Ashwin played 4 overs and gave up 26 runs while taking the wicket of Ferrario as well as team captain Ganga Shridhar Raju.

Earlier on Wednesday, Ashwin retained his top spot in the ICC bowlers’ rankings despite not being selected for the World Test final against Australia. India lost the match by a margin of 209 points, and experts condemned the Indian team management for not including the veteran spinner in the lineup.
