Ashwin would have become the third Indian to play the UAE-based league
The 39-year-old will be playing in the BBL this season
Indian cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin went unsold on Wednesday, October 1 in the ILT20 Auction. The ace spinner had set his base price at $120,000, which was the highest at the auction. Had he been picked, Ashwin would have become the third Indian to play the UAE-based league this season alongside Dinesh Karthik and Piyush Chawla.
Ashwin, who recently retired from international cricket, had been highly tipped to be snapped up at the auction. The 39-year-old had made himself available for foreign franchises after retiring from IPL in August this year.
