RCB vs RR: I think it’s par-minus – Ravichandran Ashwin
Ravichandran Ashwin, who returned with figures of 19/2 for Rajasthan Royals with the ball, spoke about his performance and said that it has been a season of two halves for him. He also talked about conditions, saying there is a dew and the opposition has posted a below-average total. He elaborated:
“It has been a tournament of two halves for me. In the first half of the tournament, I struggled after the Test series due to injuries. In the last few games I feel that I am bowling very well. I sent him a message text to Virat saying, come on, let’s fight once again. Time (smiles) The IPL committee has done well overall in the tournament in handling the Dew.
“(On RR’s recent poor batting efforts) I have to reset the button. I also have to look at the pitches we played in those games. I’m not hiding behind the fact that we didn’t bat well in the last few games, but it’s just about to hit. “The reset button, go out and enjoy in the middle (overall) I think it’s par-minus.” He concluded.
