The perpetual seeker: Ashwin, who always found ways to get a wicket, retires from international cricket
The timing is not shocking; Ashwin is 38 years old. The space is not unusual; Ashwin misses more Tests than he plays in countries such as Australia. But time and space taken together as one construct, the basis for Einstein’s Theory of Relativity – which Ashwin the engineer will only be too familiar with – ensure that there will be more questions than answers, in this case. The conspiracy theorists will insist that it was the insult of being repeatedly left out of the Test team that pushed Ashwin over the edge. The pragmatists will point to the fact that Washington Sundar’s emergence has ensured that his senior colleague isn’t even an automatic second choice spinner when playing in Australia, England, South Africa or New Zealand. The inner circle in cricket will remind the world that only a player truly knows when he or she is finally done.

G20’s role in fostering an equitable, sustainable, and inclusive world, remarked Ambassador Anil Sooklal, South Africa's High Commissioner to India. Sooklal was the key note speaker at an event in the Indian capital. “As we reflect on Africa’s role in global governance, we are reminded of the African philosophy of Ubuntu–a principle that celebrates our shared humanity and interconnectedness: ‘I am because we are’”, said Pradeep S Mehta, Secretary General of CUTS International in his opening remarks at an event on the ‘The Future of G20 and Africa’ held in New Delhi early this week.
