Port of Spain: Ravichandran Ashwin rounded off the four-Test series with two centuries and 17 wickets and the India spinner said he had expected a handsome return from the tour of West Indies, which India wrapped up with a 2-0 win after the fourth match was abandoned.


Ravichandran Ashwin rounded off the four-Test series with two centuries and 17 wickets and the India spinner said he had expected a handsome return from the tour of West Indies, which India wrapped up with a 2-0 win after the fourth match was abandoned.

The fourth Test ended in a frustrating draw on Monday with rain and wet outfield allowing no play on four consecutive days at the Queen's Park Oval.

"Personally I would say that I expected this kind of series," said Ashwin. "Not necessarily one where I expected two hundreds but I knew batting contributions would be very important. I had no idea that I would be batting at number six before I got here. But I put in the hard work without any expectations back home for a month and half. And it really paid off.

"Expectations are something that help you reach greater heights. Going forward I think being Indian cricketers, expectations are something that you always expect and I hope I can live up to the expectations and keep winning games for the country," he added.
