IPL 2022 auction will take place on 12-13 February in Bengaluru.
Days before the IPL 2022 mega auction, which will take place on February 12 and 13 in Bengaluru, veteran spinner R Ashwin has expressed his desire to return to where it all began.
Ashwin said it would be good to join the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), his first team in the Indian Premier League, in a candid interview with former IPL auctioneer Richard Madley.
While playing for CSK under MS Dhoni's leadership, Ashwin made a name for himself in cricket. He went on to lead Kings XI Punjab (now Punjab Kings) in IPL 2018 and 2019. He had won the IPL with CSK in 2010 and 2011.
The spinner, on the other hand, is unsure of his role in the CSK camp, who already have England's Moeen Ali on their side.
“I'm actually not too sure, but to be honest, a professional player going anywhere giving his best must be the ideal way to go about it. But yeah, I am 35 now, it will be nice to come back to where I started but they already have an off-spinner with them in Moeen Ali. So I don't know how they gonna go about it, so let's wait and watch," Ashwin said.
The 35-year-old has 145 wickets at an average of 27.80 in 167 IPL appearances.
