Ashwin stands right in front of Liton Das's picture-perfect straight drive

Ravichandran Ashwin has made a remarkable come back to Test cricket in the ongoing home season after a gap of 10 months. He had last featured for India in the game's longest format back in December 2018. Meanwhile, who can forget those beautiful piece of deliveries against South Africa that bamboozled a top-quality batsman like Quinton de Kock and others? Ashwin chipped in with two wickets in the first innings of the ongoing Test match against Bangladesh and even though, he has so far picked up only one wicket in the second innings, it was a standout moment that helped him earn his sole wicket.

Liton Das's straight drive goes in vain

It happened in the 40th over which was bowled by Ashwin. On the second delivery, the veteran off-spinner bowled a flighted delivery on the middle stump and Liton Das advanced down the track to hit it over the bowler's head. It was a picture-perfect straight drive but nonetheless, Ashwin had the last laugh as he went towards his right and held on to a good catch as a stunned Liton Das had to take a long walk back to the pavilion. The video of this Das's failed picture-perfect straight drive was posted by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on their official Twitter handle. Take a look.

India register yet another Test win

India declared their innings on the morning of Day 3 at 493/6 with a mammoth lead of 343 runs. The bowlers once again struck early for the hosts as Bangladesh lost their top order pretty early. Only Mushfiqur Rahim, Liton Das, Mehidy Hasan managed to show some resistance for the visitors. Rahim top-scored for Bangladesh with a 150-ball 64 and once he was dismissed, it was only a matter of time before the Mominul Haque-led side were bundled out for 213 as India won by an innings and 130 runs.
