The India spin spearhead hailed Green as a generation star and pointed out that he is highly-rated in India. He also stated that he is hopeful of Green becoming a \u2018wonderful cricketer\u2019.<\/p>\n \u201cI hope you tuned into the IPL auction (Green was sold for AU$3.15 million); it just tells you how the Indian cricketing fraternity rates Cameron Green,\u201d <\/strong>Ashwin said.<\/p>\n \u201cI think he\u2019s a fantastic player. Just the raw materials for a person as tall as him, lovely levers, good batting sense, can bowl and really hit the deck well, moves pretty well on the field.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cThese are once-in-a-generation cricketers you are talking about. We come from different countries \u2013 India is very different, we can\u2019t protect such players for a long period of time. It\u2019s perform or perish. But in countries like Australia and England, they\u2019re doing pretty well at that. I expect Cameron Green to be a wonderful cricketer down the line,\u201d\u00a0<\/strong>he added.<\/p>\n Talking about the ongoing game, India have replied well with the bat. At tea on day 3, the hosts were placed at 191 for 2 after losing the wickets of Rohit Sharma and Cheteshwar Pujara. Opener Shubman Gill has led India\u2019s charge with the bat with an unbeaten century.<\/p>\nRavichandran Ashwin on Cameron Green:<\/h3>\n
