Twitter reacts as Ravi Ashwin tames South Africa to claim his 27th five-wicket haul in Tests
It was a Ravi Ashwin special in Vizag against South Africa. South Africa's fightback after losing 3 early wickets saw centuries from Dean Elgar and Quinton de Kock, but just when things were slipping away, Ashwin pegged back the Proteas with a 5-wkt haul, and the Twitterati reacted on the same.
Absolute blinder!

Reason why Ashwin made a solid comeback is he kept playing cricket even when he was not selected in the national team be it domestic or county.

Hahahahaha!
The second new ball goes to India's most successful new ball bowler in Indian conditions. Ashwin.

27th five wicket haul for Ashwin, playing his first test after almost ten months but back with a bang.
— Johns (@CricCrazyJohns) October 4, 2019
South Africa’s day, lifting themselves out of a hole to finish with 385 and 2 wickets still remaining, tks to sterling centuries by Elgar & de Kock. India had a hero too in @ashwinravi99. Controlled and guileful. SA will dread facing him on the 5th day to chase even 200
