Team India is all set to host New Zealand for the tour which comprises of 3 Test matches and 5 One-Day Internationals (ODIs). The Indian off-spinner Ravi Ashwin is considered to be the biggest threat for the visitors given his current form and record on home soil.

Ashwin responded to the tweet from BCCI in a funny manner. “@BCCI @imVkohli @SDhawan25 @BhuviOfficial @MdShami11 @ajinkyarahane88 hello, that wasn’t a warm up session,” he wrote.

@BCCI @imVkohli @SDhawan25 @BhuviOfficial @MdShami11 @ajinkyarahane88 hello, that wasn't a warm up session.??

On a lighter note, he is giving a good fight to former Virender Sehwag, who has been viral on Twitter with his witty messages.
