Although the full form of IPL is Indian Premier League, it can also be called Indian Panga League. That is because, in this tournament, there is often some or the other ruckus which leads to a new debate. Something similar happened in the match between Rajasthan Royals and Chennai Super Kings. Off-spinner R Ashwin, who won Rajasthan Royals, has raised questions about the umpires.
R Ashwin told the media that the Rajasthan Royals team did not want to change the ball during bowling but the umpires changed it themselves. Ashwin said that he is very surprised by the decision of the umpires that the umpires changed the ball on their own without talking to the team. We didn't have any problem with the wet ball due to dew but the umpires said they can do that.
Ashwin is angry with the umpires
Ashwin further taunted and said that he hopes that now whenever dew falls, the umpire changes the ball. He said that some of the decisions taken in IPL this year have surprised him a bit. According to Ashwin, some balance is needed in the rules.
Ashwin showed power with the ball and bat
By the way, there was no harm to Rajasthan Royals by changing the ball. Especially Ashwin showed amazing with the ball. Ashwin took 2 wickets for just 25 runs in 4 overs. Ashwin got important wickets of Shivam Dubey and Ajinkya Rahane. The wicket of Ajinkya Rahane proved to be a big one for Rajasthan as this player scored 31 runs in 19 balls to take Chennai to the winning track, although Ashwin's ball forced this batsman to return to the pavilion.
