Although it is not easy for every player to digest any defeat, but there are some defeats which shake from within, because those results are completely opposite to the expectations. Something similar happened with Team India too, when it had to suffer a 0-3 defeat in the Test series at the hands of New Zealand on its own soil. This defeat not only filled the cricket fans with disappointment and anger but the players of Team India were also seen broken by this. Captain Rohit Sharma has already blamed himself for this but now another player has considered himself responsible for this defeat and said that he was shattered by this. This player is star all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin.

In this entire series, the Indian team failed on almost every front.

A few days after the end of the series and just before leaving for Australia, Ashwin expressed his feelings regarding the defeat of Team India. In a video posted on his YouTube channel, Ashwin talked about the India-New Zealand series and told that he recently came to know that for the first time the team had to face a 3-0 defeat in India. Referring to his career and experience, the star off-spinner said that players do not have much emotion during a cricket match, but this defeat was heart-breaking, due to which he was shattered. Ashwin said that for 2-3 days he did not understand what to say on this, how to react.

In this series, batsmen like Virat Kohli, captain Rohit Sharma, Sarfaraz Khan failed miserably which played a big role in the defeat. At the same time, Ashwin also could not do anything special with the bat this time, whereas for the last many years he had been making important contributions in batting at home also. Ashwin looked disappointed even more and started blaming himself for this defeat. Ashwin said that he expects good performance from himself and hence, he blames himself for whatever went wrong on the field. The right-handed batsman admitted that runs for lower order batsmen are very important and even runs are important for bowlers as it helps them put pressure on the opposition team.
