(Reuters) - India's spin spearhead Ravichandran Ashwin dismissed criticism of Chennai's turning track after his match-winning performance secured the hosts' series-levelling victory in the second test against England on Tuesday.

India's three-pronged spin attack wreaked havoc on the surface where the ball spun from the first session and kicked up dust on landing.
