List of international cricket five-wicket hauls by Ravichandran Ashwin

In cricket, a five-wicket haul (also known as a "fifer"[1]) refers to a bowler taking five or more wickets in a single innings.

This is regarded as a notable achievement,[2] and as of October 2024[update] only 54 bowlers have taken 15 or more five-wicket hauls at international level in their cricketing careers.

[4] As of September 2024[update], Ashwin has taken 37 five-wicket hauls in international cricket;[3] he ranks joint-fourth in the all-time list, and joint-first among his countrymen.

[5] His career-best figures of seven wickets for 59 runs came against New Zealand in October 2016; in the process he also became the fifth bowler to take six five-wicket hauls against them.

[c] Ashwin made his ODI and T20I debuts in June 2010 against Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe, respectively, and is yet to take a five-wicket haul in both formats.
