Ashwin, the seventh-highest wicket-taker in men’s Test cricket, added: “I had a lot of fun.
“I have made a lot of memories with Rohit (Sharma) and a few of my teammates, although we have lost a few of them (to retirement) in the last few years.
“We are the last OG, so to speak. I will mark this day as the day I compete at this level.

“Obviously there are a lot of people to thank but I wouldn’t be fulfilling my duty if I didn’t thank the BCCI and my teammates.
“On top of that, Rohit, Virat (Kohli), Ajinkya (Rahane), (Cheteshwar) Pujara, they took some catches around the bat and Gave me the number of wickets I’ve managed to get over the years.”

India captain Rohit Sharma said he heard Ashwin planned to retire but convinced him to extend his career to play in the pink-ball second Test against Australia in Adelaide. In this match, the spinner took one wicket and scored 29 runs. The visitors suffered a miserable defeat in ten games.
India defeated the hosts by 295 runs and Ashwin was ruled out of the series opener.

“I somehow convinced him to stay for (the Adelaide Test),” Rohit said of his teammate.
“As it happens, if he feels the series doesn’t need him now, it would be best for him to say goodbye to the game.
“Some decisions are very personal and I don’t think too many questions should be asked. If a player makes a choice, he has to be given that choice.

“He’s very sure of what he wants to do and the team is fully supportive of his thought process.
“The important thing is that a player like him, who has had a lot of moments in the Indian team and has been a real big match-winner for us, can make those decisions on his own.
“Since it is now, then so be it.”
