Ravichandran Ashwin has recently retired from international cricket. After him, a big place has become vacant in Team India. It will not be easy to fill his place and make Team India win that many matches. It will be difficult for a player playing in Indian conditions to replace him.
Although there is no dearth of talented players in Team India, their inclusion in the regular team will give them a chance to showcase their skills. Four players are in the race to become the regular spinner in place of Ashwin.

Washington Sundar has the upper hand in all the options. This is also because he bowls off-spin and also has good batting skills. He can play in the team as an all-rounder and can replace Ashwin. He is present with Team India on Australia tour. He has 24 wickets in his name in Tests.
Kuldeep Yadav
Chinaman Kuldeep Yadav has represented the Indian team in Test cricket. He has 56 wickets in his name in 13 test matches. His one negative point is batting. The way Ashwin supported the team by scoring centuries several times, that skill has no equal in history.
Akshar Patel
Akshar Patel has the ability to spin and bat. However, left arm spinner is already present in the team in the form of Jadeja. Akshar has taken 55 wickets in 14 matches. Apart from this, he has also scored 646 runs and is a contender to be included in the playing eleven.
Tanush Kotian
This off-spinner, who plays for Mumbai in domestic cricket, has impressed a lot. He is considered a bowling all-rounder. He has taken 101 wickets in his name after playing 33 matches in first-class cricket. Apart from this, he has scored more than 1500 runs with the bat also.
