It is franchise cricket: Srikkanth on Ashwin's potential release
India’s World Cup-winner Kris Srikkanth backed CSK’s move to split with Ashwin, stating that it is ‘franchise cricket’ at the end of the day, where emotions don’t have that big a play. "You have to understand that it is franchise cricket, everyone admires his record, but the fact is he didn’t do well for CSK last year," Srikkanth said.
