Ashwin's Birthday Celebrated Amid Bangladesh Series Prep

Indian cricketer R Ashwin celebrated his 38th birthday, marking a career filled with significant achievements, including 516 Test wickets and being the fastest to reach 350 wickets. As India prepares to face Bangladesh in a two-match Test series, former captain Sunil Gavaskar cautioned against underestimating Bangladesh, who recently secured a 2-0 series win against Pakistan. Virat Kohli, returning to Test cricket, is on the verge of joining the elite group of batters with 27,000 international runs and aims to surpass 9,000 runs in Test cricket. The series, starting on September 19 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai, will also see Jasprit Bumrah returning to action. Bangladesh's key players include captain Shanto and fast bowler Nahid Rana, who have shown remarkable performances recently.
