New Zealand's Vellore-born Spinner Adithya Ashok Relishes Prospect Of Bowling To Kohli, Rohit
New Zealand Cricket: New Zealand’s Vellore-born leg-spinner Adithya Ashok says he is excited to test his bowling against India batting greats Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in the upcoming three-game ODI series starting in Vadodara on Sunday.
Ashok, 23, was born in Vellore, Tamil Nadu, before moving to Auckland, New Zealand, at age four. The leg-spinner has played two ODIs and a T20I, and with New Zealand not having many regulars in the 50-over series, it offers Ashok the chance to bowl to two of cricket's modern-day legendary batters.
“It's a very exciting opportunity and challenge to play against those guys and, again, test yourself against people that are considered great and definitely are great. The things that they've done for the game and the things that they've achieved across their careers have been pretty phenomenal."
