I can’t express how I feel right now, but I am so very grateful to each and everyone who has wished me over the last few days. I would also like to thank the #KnowledgableChennaiCrowd for turning up in numbers and making me feel like a hero.  pic.twitter.com/VXEgC0GU2D — Ashwin (@ashwinravi99) February 16, 2021

This was England's biggest lost in Asia in terms of runs and with this win the four-match series is now leveled at 1-1.  

"I am enjoying my game and am really happy it happened in Chennai. Every load up gives a different result in terms of which way the pitch is behaving. I try and load up differently, use the breeze, use different angles to release the ball, speed of the run-up. This is working because I have created this awareness for myself. I have been playing it for the last 25 years. I really had to express myself," Ashwin said during the post-match presentation ceremony.
