‘No one at fault': Ashwin responds after CSK clarification on Dewald Brevis signing
After the Chennai Super Kings were forced to issue a clarification on the replacement signing of Dewald Brevis in the IPL 2025 season, former India all-rounder R Ashwin has responded following the confusion that arose from his claims that the franchise may have paid more than the stipulated amount to acquire the South Africa batter's services. 'I will tell you something. About Brevis. He had a great time last IPL with CSK. In fact, a few teams were talking to him. A few teams left him because of the price. When he was supposed to be signed as a replacement, he was supposed to be signed at the base price. But what happens is you talk to the agents and the player will say, if you give me X amount extra, I will come,' Ashwin had said earlier this week on his YouTube channel. On Saturday, the five-time IPL champions declared that they had abided by the IPL laws to rope in Brevis mid-way through the IPL 2025 edition. 'Chennai Super Kings categorically clarifies that all actions taken by the franchise during the signing process of Dewald Brevis as a Replacement Player during TATA Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 were in complete compliance with the rules and regulations of IPL,' a franchise statement read. Ashwin responds 'We live in such times where we have to clarify even true stories. In that way, it is a bit tricky. But I won't go there. There is no one at fault here. The clarification here on this matter has arisen from the fact that a lot of people have doubts. The point is the player is not at fault, the franchise is not at fault, and maybe the governing body is also not at fault. All of us need to understand that if a franchise needs a player, the franchise talks to the player or the player's agent and tells the BCCI, 'Look, so-and-so player of ours is injured, we need another player. ' The matter gets closed there,' Ashwin said on his YouTube channel. Ashwin said that his words may have been misconstrued and that several teams have made big-money replacement picks in the past, citing Chris Gayle's example. 'The IPL or those who need to give approval, give the approval, and the player comes and plays. If there was any fault here, that player would not have played in the franchise. This is not about Brevis; it is generally the case. There is one other thing I want to explain. My intention in the video was to describe how well Brevis was batting. We have to understand that every player who plays in the IPL has a tri-parted contract: The player, franchise, and the IPL have a binding contract.' 'So if something is wrong with it, it won't get ratified. That is why, probably, the tweet that said clause so-and-so makes complete sense. The flexibility that is there with the IPL's injury replacement, everyone is making use of it. It is not only CSK who have picked a replacement; there have been several other teams. RCB have taken Chris Gayle in the past, and he became a superstar. Injury replacements are a common facet of the IPL, and even in that, the rule flexibility that you have, how you make use of that, within the limit, you can use it. That is the point'.

'No Designated Finisher, All-Format Captain Soon': Gambhir's Roadmap To Transform India
Last Updated: Head coach Gautam Gambhir will focus on T20Is as India prepares for the Asia Cup, aiming to rebrand the team by emphasizing players' skillsets over designated roles. Following a successful England tour, head coach Gautam Gambhir will shift his focus to the T20Is as India's next assignment is the Asia Cup, which begins next month. The shortest format has always been the former opener's strength, both as a player and as a coach, with plenty of facts to back it up. T20 has brought him recognition. A decade ago, he led Kolkata Knight Riders to back-to-back title victories. Last year, he stepped into the mentor's shoes and helped the franchise clinch its third. Even before taking up the role of India's head coach, Gambhir was vocal about the selection of the T20I team based on the IPL performances. As he gears up to guide the men in blue in the Asia Cup and the series against Australia and South Africa, the mentality for team selection seems the same. According to The Times Of India, Gambhir is determined to rebrand the T20 side. As the team has often received criticism for not keeping along with time, Gambhir is believed to address that primarily. 'The chatter in Indian cricket is that he would prefer an all-format captain soon to build a common culture. Gambhir has been very clear with his vision. He walked in with an idea to rebrand the T20 team. India have often been accused of not being able to move with the times in the shortest format. Gambhir has decided to address it with players who can be branded as T20 specialists," the report said. The report further stated that there are no more designated finishers in the dressing room. Instead, the roles are assigned as per the skillset of the players. 'There's no room for getting comfortable. Roles are assigned as per skills, not batting numbers. He is comfortable with this facet of a modern-day T20 cricketer," the report said. 'Shivam Dube, for one, will always get preference since he can go up the order and blast the bowling if the openers get off to great starts. There are no designated finishers," it further read. After the Champions Trophy success and a decent England tour, things seem to be falling in place for Gambhir. The upcoming T20I assignments will be crucial for him, especially when the team looks to defend the T20 World Cup title at home in a few months. view comments Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

"Not Only CSK, RCB Have...": R Ashwin Breaks Silence After Dewald Brevis Statement Triggers Row
Former India cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin left the world of cricket in utter shock as he hinted as the Chennai Super Kings potentially paid 'a little extra' to sign South African prodigy Dewald Brevis as an injury replacement in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season. Brevis came into the team as a replacement for Gurjapneet Singh, vacating a total of Rs 2.2 crore to be spent on Brevis, who had a base price of Rs 75 lakh but went unsold in the auction. As Ashwin revealed that players and their agents usually ask for bigger sums to be spent on them, as getting sold in the auction usually sees them earn much more. This statement by the former India off-spinner, and Brevis' current CSK teammate, triggered a big controversy, forcing even the IPL franchise to clarify. Seeing the Super Kings needing to issue clarity on the signing of Brevis, Ashwin too shed some light on the unnecessary controversy, saying these days even true stories are required to be clarified. "We live in such times where we have to clarify even true stories. In that way, it is a bit tricky. But I won't go there. There is no one at fault here. The clarification here on this matter has arisen from the fact that a lot of people have doubts. The point is the player is not at fault, the franchise is not at fault, and maybe the governing body is also not at fault. All of us need to understand that if a franchise needs a player, the franchise talks to the player or the player's agent and tells the BCCI, 'Look, so-and-so player of ours is injured, we need another player. ' The matter gets closed there," Ashwin said in a video on his YouTube channel. The veteran off-spinner highlighted that if there was anything suspicious with the signing of Brevis, the IPL Governing Council would not have given their approval to sign the South African star. Ashwin also cited the example of Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), who have signed players like Chris Gayle in similar deals in the past. "The IPL or those who need to give approval give the approval, and the player comes and plays. If there was any fault here, that player would not have played in the franchise. This is not about Brevis; it is generally the case. There is one other thing I want to explain. My intention in the video was to describe how well Brevis was batting. We have to understand that every player who plays in the IPL has a tri-parted contract: The player, franchise, and the IPL have a binding contract." "So if something is wrong with it, it won't get ratified. That is why, probably, the tweet that said clause so-and-so makes complete sense. The flexibility that is there with the IPL's injury replacement, everyone is making use of it. It is not only CSK who have picked a replacement; there have been several other teams. RCB have taken Chris Gayle in the past, and he became a superstar. Injury replacements are a common facet of the IPL, and even in that, the rule flexibility that you have, how you make use of that, within the limit, you can use it. That is the point," said Ashwin. To sum up, Ashwin feels CSK struck gold with Brevis, even as they signed him as a replacement player. "I watch a lot more cricket. I don't pay too much attention to these things (on the Brevis-CSK controversy). Nowadays, we make YouTube videos, and we give our opinion in these videos. The ones who watch the videos don't tend to do anything out of the ordinary. The ones who don't watch the videos can read the statement and twist the story. Unfortunately, in today's times, folks can watch smaller videos, read shorter headlines. There is nothing wrong there. Dewald Brevis is a fabulous player, and the way he is batting, CSK has struck gold. Whoever has made the decision they have taken a fabulous decision," said Ashwin.
