The team got the best picks from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/?s=auction+2022\">Mega-Auction 2022<\/a> and is in third place in the points table with 7 wins. The bowling order has been magnificent for the team throughout the season. The only issue Rajasthan has faced this year is with their batting strength in the middle order. To toughen their middle order, the team has been seen sending <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/?s=R+Ashwin\">R. Ashwin<\/a> at one down in the previous through matches. This doesn\u2019t only give depth to Rajasthan\u2019s batting order but gives Ashwin freedom to play his shots at the top order as a pinch-hitter. Although the plan hasn\u2019t worked well so far for the side, the fans are thoroughly entertained by R. Ashwin\u2019s batting approach.<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, Ashwin came up with a unique yet amusing stance, which took Twitter by fire. The fans were seen reacting to Ashwin batting with a stance, where his arms and bat are very close to the ground. This type of stance was seen for the very first time in International cricket.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how the fans reacted to it:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Ashwin is so humble.
