Ashwin to miss maiden BBL stint due to knee injury

SYDNEY: Former India cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin has been ruled out of the Big Bash League’s 2025 edition, owing to a knee injury he sustained in Chennai, his BBL club Sydney Thunder said on Tuesday.

Thunder roped in the 39-year-old off-spin all-rounder for a full season as he became the first Indian male cricketer to play the Australian tournament. However, a knee injury has now ruled him out of the league, with the franchise mentioning that they will monitor his recovery closely to see if Ashwin can participate in the later stages of the tournament.

"The impact of Ashwin’s history-making signing will continue to be felt across the Thunder Nation, and the club is working closely with him on a revised schedule of activity during BBL|15, pending the progress of his recovery," the franchise said in a statement.
