Ashwin, who is on a break in the UK like the rest of his India teammates after the World Test Championship final, has played for Nottinghamshire and Worcestershire in the past. If he is able to get the visa for Surrey’s game against Somerset at The Oval, Ashwin will get valuable match practice before the five-Test series against India starting August 4.
