Watch: Ravichandran Ashwin Comes Up With Another Bizarre Action 


Ravichandran Ashwin’s knack of coming up with variations in order to do well in T20s, is fast getting out of hands. At first, he just tried his hands at bowling different variations just like others do. However, he is now coming up with different actions to get the work done on the field. In the first game of the ongoing Tamil Nadu Premier League, the Dindigul Dragons skipper came up with a bizarre piece of bowling action.
And while many thought it was just a one-off, he left everyone mighty amused with even more bizarre piece of action against Madurai Panthers on Monday. Just like the last game, Ashwin tried it in the very final over of the innings. But unlike the last time when the result was a wide, he managed to pick up a wicket this time.

On the second last-ball of the match, Ashwin made Kiran Akash  his victim. The India off-spinner had the ball right behind his back, completely hiding it from the batsman. With the batsman completely unaware of what was going to happen, Ashwin released it like a balloon. It was as slow as one can think of and the batsman fell in the trap. He tried to clear the long-on boundary but could not and was caught


Talking about the game, Dindigul Dragons continued their winning start to the tournament by beating Madurai Panthers by 30 runs. Batting first, the Dragons piled up 182 for 6 with openers N Jagadeesan and Hari Prasanth scoring fifties. In reply, the Panthers finished on 152 for 9. M Silambarasan starred with the ball, picking up 4 for 20 while Ashwin took 3 wickets.

MS Dhoni’s Parents Don’t Want Him To Play Anymore, Says His Childhood Coach  Speculations are rife over the future of MS Dhoni. Reports are doing the round that MS Dhoni’s retirement is very much on the cards and the former India skipper can wave goodbye to international cricket anytime soon. MS Dhoni has been under pressure to quit for quite some time now and the pressure has only increased after the World Cup. While the veteran wicketkeeper-batsman has not been low on runs but it is his strike-rate that is causing all the problems for him. Regarded as one of the greatest finishers of all time, MS Dhoni has looked like a pale shadow of his usual self. The World Cup-winning skipper has not really managed to bat like he used to do. In the World Cup, he struggled against the likes of Afghanistan and England. Those two knocks had made many question the intent of MS Dhoni. In the semifinal against New Zealand, he did score a fighting 50 but once again used up too many bal
