Watch: R Ashwin Gives An Aggressive Send-off To Eoin Morgan
Since its beginning, the IPL has provided many ways for fans and followers to be entertained. Many memorable events have occurred in the league throughout the years.
Aside from those memorable moments, there were plenty of gloomy ones as well on the pitch. Disgraceful events like this shook the cricket community because they caused so much controversy and division.
At the meanwhile, one such event occurred during the second phase of the IPL 2021 in Sharjah during the match between Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders.
R Ashwin Gives An Aggressive Send-off To Eoin Morgan
Captain Eoin Morgan of the Kolkata Knight Riders won the toss and elected to bowl first. When Lockie Ferguson fired Shikhar Dhawan, the table-toppers went downhill fast.
The team's batting order has little predictability. Steve Smith ended up with a total of 39 points from 34 balls, including 4 extra-point shots. Capturing the DC innings with his bat, Rishabh Pant made 39 off 36 balls, including three fours.
The spinners from KKR performed an excellent job of restricting the batters from DC. Lockie Ferguson, Sunil Narine, and Venkatesh Iyer all got two wickets each.
Tim Southee bowled the last over and Ravichandran Ashwin attempted to smash a boundary but was caught by Nitish Rana. Within a short period of time, Ravi Ashwin and Eoin Morgan went head-to-head.
The first person to speak with Ashwin was Tim Southee. By contrast, Morgan jumped on board. Before things went from bad to worse, Dinesh Karthik removed Ravi Ashwin from the scene.
The final ball of the 19th over, when they stole a run over the course of the game, is something we question. Ashwin was removed from the game after making nine off eight balls.
