List of international cricket five-wicket hauls by Ravichandran Ashwin

Ravichandran Ashwin
Ashwin has taken a pair of five-wicket hauls in a match on four occasions.

In cricket, a five-wicket haul (also known as a "fifer"[1]) refers to a bowler taking five or more wickets in a single innings. This is regarded as a notable achievement,[2] and as of March 2017 only 45 bowlers have taken 15 or more five-wicket hauls at international level in their cricketing careers.[3] Ravichandran Ashwin—a right-arm off break bowler—is a Test, One Day International (ODI) and Twenty20 International (T20I) cricketer who represents the India national cricket team. In a 2016 interview, former Sri Lanka spinner Muttiah Muralitharan described Ashwin as the "best current Test spinner".[4] As of March 2017, Ashwin has taken 25 five-wicket hauls in international cricket;[3] he ranks thirteenth in the all-time list,[3] and third among his countrymen.[lower-alpha 1]

Ashwin made his Test debut in November 2011 against the West Indies. He took nine wickets in the match, including a five-wicket haul in the second innings. India won the match and his performance earned him a man of the match honour.[5] His career-best figures of seven wickets for 59 runs came against New Zealand in October 2016, and in the process he became the fifth bowler to take six five-wicket hauls against them.[lower-alpha 2] He has picked up ten or more wickets in a match on seven occasions.[7] Ashwin made his ODI and T20I debuts in June 2010 against Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe, respectively, and is yet to take a five-wicket haul in both formats. His four wickets for 25 runs against the United Arab Emirates in the 2015 World Cup remain his best in ODIs,[8] while his four wickets for 8 runs against Sri Lanka is an Indian record in T20Is.[9]
