IPL 2023 PBKS vs RR : In a surprise move, Rajasthan Royals choose Ravichandran Ashwin to open the innings

Ashwin came as the opening batsman in IPL after ten years

Set to chase a mammoth score of 198 by Punjab Kings, Rajasthan Royals opted for Ravichandran Ashwin to open along with Yashasvi Jaiswal. After the fall of the first wicket, Ashwin & Buttler batted together. From the run-out at the non-striker end a few seasons ago to this, IPL is genuinely an outstanding event. However, Ashwin was dismissed by Arshdeep Singh for a duck.
