Former Indian cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin has heaped praise on Australian fast bowler Scott Boland for his game-changing performances in the recently concluded Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Ashwin believes Boland's inclusion was the pivotal factor in Australia securing a 3-1 series victory over India Down Under.

Scott Boland, who stepped in after Josh Hazlewood's injury, finished as the third-highest wicket-taker in the series despite playing just three out of the five Tests. Boland's remarkable tally of 21 wickets from six innings came at an impressive average of 13.19 and a strike rate of just 29.04.

His impact was particularly felt in the final Test, where he delivered a Player of the Match performance, taking ten wickets and sealing the series for Australia.

Speaking on his YouTube channel, Ashwin reflected on the tight contest that ultimately swung in Australia's favor, thanks to Boland’s inclusion.

“The series was on the line till the last session in Sydney. What a great series it was. As pure cricket, it was a class series, outstanding. Australia won the series after a tough fight till the last day,” Ashwin said.

Ashwin also highlighted the moment he felt the series turned in Australia's favor. He pointed to Josh Hazlewood's injury, which led to Boland's sudden involvement in the series, calling it a stroke of luck for the hosts.

"All said that Pat Cummins had a great series, but he struggled against left-handers. Australia was lucky that Scott Boland came into the team. If Boland hadn't played, India would have won the series," Ashwin asserted.

He elaborated further on how Boland’s round-the-wicket bowling was particularly effective against India’s left-handers, disrupting their rhythm.

"No offence to Josh Hazlewood; he's a fantastic bowler. But if they had continued with the same attack, we would have won. Boland's round-the-wicket deliveries to our left-handers were a major factor," Ashwin explained.
