Let me tell you that on the first evening of Republic Day, the Central Government announced the Padma Awards for 2025, including the names of Sreejesh and Ashwin.
Ashwin retired from international cricket during the tour of Australia last year. He is one of India’s successful spinners. Ashwin ended his career as India’s second most successful bowler in Tests. Ashwin took 537 wickets in 106 Tests and he was just behind former spinner Anil Kumble, who took 619 wickets in his Test career. Ashwin is currently participating in IPL 2025 and is representing Chenni Super Kings this season.
