As Ravichandran Ashwin made a return to ODIs after 20 months under head coach Rahul Dravid, did you know that both Ash and Dravid played an ODI series together for India?

The year was 2011 when India toured England. Ashwin made his limited-overs debut the previous year, while the series was Dravid's swansong. 

The 5-match series saw India win no games at all as 2 matches were abandoned due to rain. 

Cut to 2023, and Ashwin and Dravid's paths crossed yet again as the off-spinner was included in the ODI squad for a 3-match series vs Australia.

Ashwin was impressive on his return as he finished with figures of 1 for 47 in 10 overs. That included a crucial wicket of Marnus Labuschagne
