Honestly it looks like a jibe (from) where you are looking at Indian wickets. You guys watch the game through the day and pitch is something you can definitely assess better than we do," Ashwin said at the press conference when asked about his assessment of the pitch. Ashwin, who claimed two wickets, including the prized scalp of Joe Root (53), said the pitch was of his liking. Earlier in the day, Ashwin put up a stellar show with the bat scoring a crucial half-century. Ashwin also had a special mention for debutant Jayant Yadav and revealed he shared a special rapport with the 26-year-old off-spinner.
