Ashwin is the biggest threat for Aussies, says Ian Chappell
Chappell, in his interaction organised by Star Sports, admitted that the senior Indian spinner will be biggest threat for Australia in upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
"Why is Ashwin likely to be the threat? Because he is a smart cricketer. Ashwin will always be a problem. Now, if you let him bowl the way he wants to bowl, you are in trouble. He will be a threat to Australia throughout. They have got to be proactive," Chappell said.
"You got to be thinking about being proactive. If you are not dictating terms, then you are in trouble. You have to get singles and rotate the strike. He (Ashwin) then has to change (his strategy against) whom he is bowling to then."
Chappell also advised Australia against using Ashton Agar as a second spinner.
"Australia should not get carried away by left and right combination. India have got one in Ashwin and Jadeja who are both very good bowlers. Agar is a guy, who averages 40. If he is picked for few runs down the order, there would be a temptation to play him as Cameron Green can't bowl. But that theory is rubbish," said Chappell.
