Although, Ravichandran Ashwin is currently playing county cricket in England but that does not mean he is not thinking about his fans in India. In a heartwarming gesture, Ashwin asked his management team to provide his fan, P Venkatesan a hospitality box ticket for the India-Australia One Day International at the Chepauk Stadium in Chennai.

As reported by a leading newspaper, Ashwin said, “ This is a part of ‘The Ashwin Foundation’, which aims to bring smile on faces. We are definitely not doing this for publicity. It is the part of our endeavor at The Ashwin Foundation to put a smile on faces. Every request or friendly demand cannot be met with a positive response but we do the best we can. Venkat is a genuine cricket lover and this is the least we could do for him.”

Venkatesan thanked the efforts taken by Ashwin’s management team and called it a once-in-a-lifetime event for him. Venkatesan is currently battling for his life as he is facing kidney related problem and will undergo a transplant surgery in November.
