WATCH: Ravichandran Ashwins unorthodox Uno Reverse card move stuns cricket fraternity in TNPL 2023
In a recent match of the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) 2023, Ravichandran Ashwin, renowned for his street-smart cricketing skills, showcased an extraordinary move that left spectators and fans bewildered. Representing the Dindigul Dragons after returning from the World Test Championship (WTC) final, Ashwin made an immediate impact with his bowling prowess against Ba11sy Trichy in Match 4 of TNPL 2023.
Leading the Dragons, Ashwin wasted no time in demonstrating his brilliance as he claimed a wicket on only the second ball of his over. Daryl Ferrario fell victim to Ashwin’s trap, being dismissed leg-before-wicket.
However, it was an entirely different incident during the 13th over of the innings that grabbed the attention of cricket enthusiasts. Ashwin believed he had dismissed Rajkumar, appealing for a caught-behind dismissal. The on-field umpire raised his finger, signaling the batsman’s departure.
Undeterred by the decision, Rajkumar decided to challenge it by opting for a review. Upon review, despite a significant spike on the snickometer, the third umpire overturned the decision, ruling Rajkumar not out.
In a twist that caught everyone off guard, Ashwin, captivated by the turn of events, decided to challenge the DRS verdict on the same delivery. The on-field umpires, slightly bemused themselves, went through the review process once again. To everyone’s astonishment, the TV umpire upheld Rajkumar’s not-out decision for the second time.
The peculiar and unprecedented moment instantly gained traction on the internet, becoming the talk of the town among cricket fans. Ashwin’s unorthodox move of challenging a DRS verdict on the same delivery highlighted his astuteness and ability to think outside the box, leaving fans in awe of his cricketing acumen.
