Ashwin is in discussions with four BBL clubs and is set to play the latter stages of the tournament.
He will become the first capped male Indian player to feature in the Big Bash League.
Sydney Thunder, Hobart Hurricanes, Sydney Sixers, and Adelaide Strikers are all vying for his signature.
Thunder and Hurricanes appear to be leading the race, with a deal expected soon.
Ashwin can play in overseas leagues after retiring from IPL cricket, making him eligible for the BBL.
Ashwin’s entry into the BBL marks a historic moment, making him the first capped male Indian player to feature in the league.
