India off-spinner R Ashwin on Tuesday attributed his success with the bat in recent times to preparations at home during Covid-19 lockdown.

Ashwin hit a century on the third day of the second Test to help India set up a massive 482-run target for England. "During Covid-19, I practiced a lot at home, hitting shots on the wall, sweeping, driving, and also working on the footwork. It came good," he told the media on Tuesday.
