NEW DELHI: Ravichandran Ashwin found himself at the center of a humorous incident during a TNPL 2024 match between the Nellai Royal Kings and the Dindigul Dragons on Sunday.
During the 15th over of the Dindigul Dragons’ innings, bowler Mohan Prasath gave Ashwin a warning for leaving the non-striker’s end too early. In a move that amused both spectators and commentators, Ashwin had actually kept his bat grounded in the crease until the very last moment.
The light-hearted nature of the incident was evident, as the commentators couldn’t contain their laughter during the on-air commentary.
Star Sports shared a video of the incident on social media with a caption in the local language, which translated to, ‘Ash Anna be like: Headmaster of the school you studied in!’

Mankading, a method of dismissal where the bowler runs out the non-striker for backing up too far, gained significant attention when Ashwin dismissed Jos Buttler in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2019. Since then, Ashwin has been a vocal supporter of the legality and fairness of this mode of dismissal, arguing that it adheres to the rules of cricket.
Ashwin’s stance and actions continue to spark debate and highlight the importance of adhering to the laws of the game.
