Blamed For India's Defeat In Indore Test, R Ashwin Shares Insane Tale Of Trolling

Ravichandran Ashwin was blamed by many fans for India's defeat in the Indore Test as he had created a video named "How to bat against spin in India" after the Delhi Test.

Just a couple of days after the conclusion of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Ravichandran Ashwin became a busy man again as he shared an insane tale of trolling from the series. Other than being India's chief orchestrator on the field, Ashwin also made a few videos during the Test series against Australia, one of which came after the second Test in New Delhi. As Ashwin explained 'how to play spin in India', the hosts lost the following match in Indore, with Steve Smith's men securing a 9-wicket win.

What happened after the match, however, put Ashwin on the backfoot as many fans blamed him for India's defeat in the third Test. The bombardment of comments on the video even prompted the admin to change the thumbnail of the video.

In another video on his YouTube channel, Ashwin explained the entire story in detail.

"Once we lost in Indore, everyone started commenting on that video. 'Since you taught them how to play against spin in India, we lost the Indore Test. You were the reason for our own downfall'. These were some of the comments. I found it really funny.

"We have Rahul David who has played for so many years and did his coaching in NCA before coming here. Likewise with Andrew McDonald for the Australian team. The narrative changed completely as if the Australians saw one YouTube video and learned how to play spin. I found it very funny and also was very proud of myself. I was like how good I should have been that I coached an entire cricket team in a single video and made them win a Test match. I was feeling very happy and proud," he said.
