Ravichandran Ashwin’s wife note:
She wrote “We chased the 500 to Hyderabad, it didn’t happen. To Vizag, it didn’t happen. So I just bought a ton of sweets and gave it to everyone at home at 499. 500 came and went quietly. Till it didn’t. A lot happened between 500 and 501. Longest 48 hours of our lives. But this is about the 500. And the 499 before that. What a phenomenal achievement. What a phenomenal guy. I am insanely proud of you Ravi Ashwin. We love you!”

During the press conference held on the second day after the match, Rohit Sharma backed Ashwin’s choice, stating that Ashwin made the right choice by prioritising his family.
Rohit said at the press conference following the game, “It’s not easy to lose your best bowler in the middle of a Test match. First and foremost, family matters most to me. And there were no questions in our minds about him doing what he felt was right when we heard the news.”
He wanted to be with his family, and that was perfectly acceptable. It was advantageous to him, and his character and personality are demonstrated by his ability to worm his way in and become a team member. He continued, “We were thrilled to have him back.”
