Ashwin,
along
with
Shreyas
Iyer,
shared
an
unbeaten
stand
of
71
runs
and
helped
the
visitors
overcome
Bangladesh’s
challenge
in
a
tricky
run
chase
of
145.
India,
thus,
managed
to
clean
sweep
the
series
2-nil
and
jumped
to
second
position
in
the
World
Test
Championship
(WTC)
table.
Ashwin
remained
not
out
at
42
(off
62
balls)
and
while
Iyer
–
who
has
had
a
terrific
2022
across
formats
–
made
29*
off
46
deliveries.
The
two
saw
their
team
steer
through
troubled
waters
after
India
were
reduced
to
74
for
7
by
Bangladeshi
bowlers.
Mehidy
Hasan
Miraz
(5/63)
and
Shakib
Al
Hasan
(2/50)
dismissed
seven
Indian
batters
and
pushed
them
to
the
backfoot
in
the
run
chase.
Ashwin
smashed
one
maximum
and
four
boundaries
in
his
innings
and
took
his
team
home.
When
India
needed
16
runs
to
win,
the
all-rounder
first
smashed
dangerous
Mehidy
Hasan
for
a
maximum
on
the
first
ball,
took
a
double
on
the
next
delivery
and
later
hit
back-to-back
fours
to
finish
the
game
for
his
team.
The
right-handed
batter
–
who
received
a
lot
of
praise
for
his
presence
of
mind
in
Team
India’s
win
over
Pakistan
during
the
T20
World
Cup
match
–
once
again
showcased
his
batting
talent
and
rescued
his
team
from
dire
straits.
The
Tamil
Nadu
cricketer
got
a
reprieve
for
1
when
he
was
put
down
at
short-leg
region
and
made
the
hosts
pay
for
that
dropped
chance.
Reminding
the
world
of
his
batting
exploits
in
the
red-ball
format
Ashwin
took
India
home.
Reacting
to
Team
India’s
victory
over
Bangladesh
in
the
second
Test,
Sehwag
hailed
Ashwin
as
a
scientist.
The
Nawab
of
Najarfgarh
took
to
his
Twitter
handle
and
shared
a
photoshopped
image,
of
Ashwin
in
a
scientist’s
attire.
“The
scientist
did
it.
Somehow
got
this
one.
Brilliant
innings
from
Ashwin
and
wonderful
partnership
with
Shreyas
Iyer,”
Sehwag
captioned
the
image.

With
this
clean
sweep,
Team
India
have
ended
the
year
2022
on
a
positive
note.
The
year
hasn’t
been
memorable
for
them.
This
Test
match
also
tested
their
character
to
the
hilt
and
minnows
(in
Tests)
Bangladesh
had
almost
given
the
side
a
scare
in
their
last
game
of
2022.
