Ashwin played a vital role in drawing the third Test in Sydney, batting for 42.4 overs with an aching back alongside Hanuma Vihari.<\/p>\n<p>After failing to break Ashwin&#8217;s resolve with the bat, Paine started poking the Indian from behind the stumps. &#8220;I can&#8217;t wait to get you to the Gabba, Ash, I&#8217;ll tell you what, woohoo,&#8221; Paine said ahead of an over from off-spinner Nathan Lyon.<\/p>\n<p>But Paine does not regret it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, I don&#8217;t because to this day Ashwin didn&#8217;t play in that (Brisbane) Test match. I wasn&#8217;t talking to the Indians, I was talking to him. I said we cannot wait to get you to the Gabba.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8230;because he was annoying us, fair to say. He is a fantastic cricketer. He was getting me out all the time and that was annoying me as well,&#8221; Paine said in a podcast of &#8216;thegradecricketer&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Ashwin too replied in kind to Paine, saying: &#8220;Just like we wanna get you to India. That will be your last series.\u201d Paine said the sledge was aimed at the Indian spinner.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But no, that was purely directed straight at him and he pulled out of that Test match because of back spasm.&#8221; &#8220;Did I had a great game in that match? No, but I fronted up. Actually day one of the Test match he (Ashwin) was jogging laps. Those back spasms couldn&#8217;t have been that bad,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>(This report has been published as part of the auto-generated syndicate wire feed.
