WATCH – R Ashwin storms out in anger after argument with umpire over LBW call in TNPL game
Veteran India spinner R Ashwin lost his cool during a Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) 2025 match after being given out LBW. A video of the incident is now going viral, in which Ashwin can be seen arguing with the umpire over the decision.
The 38-year-old, who is captaining Dindigul Dragons, was dismissed LBW by Sai Kishore of IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans. However, Ashwin didn't agree with the on-field decision and got into a heated argument with the on-field umpire.

Ashwin loses cool in TNPL game
His team had already burnt both their reviews while trying to get the wide call overturned by the umpire. Ashwin had no review left when the LBW out was given, and hence, he resorted to convincing the umpire verbally. When that didn't happen, the former India cricketer stormed out in anger.
'He has bowled this from over the stumps, ma'am,' Ashwin was heard saying on the stump mic, showing his frustration. The commentators pointed this out on air that Ashwin was talking about the angle of delivery and judgement.

Ashwin's team suffers humiliating defeat
Ashwin's dismissal turned out to be a big blow to the Dragons, who were already under pressure after a batting collapse. They were eventually bowled out for 93 runs in 16.2 overs. Ashwin and just two other batters crossed the double-digit mark.
Esakkimuthu A picked up four wickets, while M Mathivannan took three. Sai Kishore scalped two wickets to his name. Tiruppur Tamizhans chased down the target with ease in just 11.5 overs and won by 9 wickets. Tushar Raheja did the bulk of the scoring as he remained unbeaten at 65 off 39 balls.

Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Akash Deep smashed his way to a maiden half-century, frustrating a lacklustre England and putting India in a strong position at lunch on Day 3 of the final Test at The Oval on Saturday. Resuming the day at 75 for two, India did exceedingly well to reach 189 for three at the break, with Yashasvi Jaiswal (85 not out off 106 balls) and Akash Deep (66 off 94 balls) sharing a 107-run stand off 150 balls. Yashasvi Jaiswal press conference: Message from Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli help, support from Gambhir The Indian pacer, who was on four overnight, was eventually dismissed by Jamie Overton towards the end of the session with a well-directed short ball aimed at his rib cage, leaving him in a tangle. Gus Atkinson took an easy catch at point. Akash Deep, who had just one first-class fifty to his name prior to this game, made his intentions clear in the first over of the day, bowled by left-arm spinner Jacob Bethell. The Indian cleared his front leg and dispatched Bethell over mid-wicket for a boundary. Poll What aspect of Akash Deep's batting impressed you the most? Fearless approach Natural flair Solid technique He didn't hold back against the fast bowlers either, especially Atkinson.

"He's got this raw batting talent. In Australia, he helped India avoid the follow-on in Brisbane. He batted beautifully. He has a solid defence and can hit the ball cleanly — we've seen that in the IPL," Ashwin said. "He's an off-side player. He doesn't have many shots on the leg side, but he has good technique to negotiate the short ball. It took England some time to realise that Akash doesn't like deliveries angled into him."

'I am pleasantly surprised': Ashwin stunned by team's bold move on Bumrah, shares insightful take
Former India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has expressed surprise over Jasprit Bumrah not featuring in the fifth Test in the series against England. read more Former India bowler Ravichandran Ashwin was left flummoxed to witness Jasprit Bumrah's absence in the , but ended up admitting that it was the right decision on the part of Bumrah. Paying heed to the topic through his YouTube channel, Ashwin stated that he expected the team to push the pacer to play the final Test, but noted that the management may have come to terms with the importance the player holds for Team India and because of that, it may have abstained from trying to persuade him. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD To manage the workload and evade a potential injury, Jasprit Bumrah had conveyed his intention to play only three out of the five Tests in the series. As promised, the pacer only featured in three Tests -1st, 3rd, and 4th- of the series and finished his campaign with 14 wickets. 'I am pleasantly surprised because if this were the Indian team of the past, they would have persuaded Bumrah to play the final Test. Even now, the team management might have looked at it, but from Bumrah's perspective, this is a sound decision. He had already decided that he was going to play only three Tests, and he stuck to that,' Ashwin said on YouTube. Ashwin on management resting Bumrah in the fifth Test Ashwin highlighted that Bumrah's longstanding back issue was a factor in his absence from the fifth Test, and believes that resting him could benefit the Indian team in the long term. 'His back issue is not a normal one. It has kept him out of the game for almost two years. He is a valuable asset to the Indian team. So, the decision is the right one, and I am pleasantly surprised. I am very happy that Bumrah is prioritizing his body because in the long run, he will be very useful,' Ashwin added. Fifth Test hangs in balance After losing yet another toss, Shubman Gill and co were put to bat first. On a difficult surface to bat on at the Oval, India's innings crumbled like a sack of potatoes and ended up getting 224 on the board. In reply, England had a perfect start, with Ben Duckett and Zak Crawley once again giving the hosts a flying start. England were cruising at 129/1, but wickets began to fall in the second session of Day 2. The Indian bowlers carved their way back into the game and restricted England to 247. Trailing by 23 runs, Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul gave India a steady start and eradicated the trail at a fine pace. England eventually drew first blood in the form of Rahul, who departed after making just 7 runs. Jaiswal and Sai Sudharsan are currently in the middle as India have reached 55/1 after 13 overs, leading by 32 runs. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD

R Ashwin Gives Stunning Take On Jasprit Bumrah Not Playing 5th Test: 'Surprised...'
Former Indian cricket team spinner R Ashwin believes that the decision to rest Jasprit Bumrah for the fifth Test against England was the right one. Bumrah's absence in the must-win encounter became a major talking point despite BCCI making it clear ahead of the series that he will not play all the matches. The star pacer played 3 out of the 4 games in the series - in line with the understanding that he will play three matches. Ashwin said that he was surprised that Bumrah was not persuaded to play the Test. "I am pleasantly surprised because if this were the Indian team of the past, they would have persuaded Bumrah to play the final Test. Even now, the team management might have looked at it, but from Bumrah's perspective, this is a sound decision. He had already decided that he was going to play only three Tests, and he stuck to that," Ashwin said on YouTube. Ashwin also spoke at length about the back issue that has bothered Bumrah in the recent past and said that the call to rest him for the fifth Test can help the Indian cricket team in the long run. "His back issue is not a normal one. It has kept him out of the game for almost two years. He is a valuable asset to the Indian team. So, the decision is the right one, and I am pleasantly surprised. I am very happy that Bumrah is prioritizing his body because in the long run, he will be very useful," Ashwin added. Ashwin also explained why he thought Kuldeep Yadav was once again not included in the playing XI. "There is no need to add pressure on Kuldeep's shoulder. People should understand that Kuldeep is going to play the role of the fourth seamer. He is not going to be your strike bowler. In these conditions, the fast bowlers will be your strike bowlers," he said.
