"That Ravichandran Ashwin over was where RR's game was lost" - viral statement

The IPL league match between Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore was played at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai yesterday. Batting first, Rajasthan scored 169 for 3 in 20 overs. Jos Butler top-scored with 70 and Hetmyer with 42.

Batting next, Bangalore won by 273 runs for the loss of 6 wickets in 19.5 overs. Dinesh Karthik (44) and Shahbaz Ahmed (45) were the top scorers for the team.

Former West Indies batsman Carlos Brathwaite has blamed Rajasthan spinner Ashwin for the team's defeat in the match. Speaking on the occasion, he said, "That Ravichandran Ashwin over was when the game was lost. But the new ball was key for RR to get over the line. The way the RCB openers played is what I think set up the chase and even allowed a provision for them to lose a few quick wickets and still be in the game."

Bangalore, who played well in the beginning of the match, suddenly lost wickets in a row. So Bangalore lost 4 wickets in 10 overs. Shahbaz Ahmed and Dinesh Karthik, who joined this time, put up a good performance. However, the game was under the control of Rajasthan. Dinesh Karthik then hit 3 fours and 1 six in the 14th over off Ashwin. So 21 runs went in that over. This was the turning point in the game and the main reason for Bangalore's return to the side.
