Ashwin bamboozles Bangladesh's left and right-handed batsmen with tricky deliveries

Ravichandran Ashwin has been a key weapon for India in Test cricket for so many years. The veteran off-spinner has been instrumental in India's success in the game's longest format in home conditions and has played a pivotal role in ensuring that India are an unbeatable side in their backyard for almost seven years. Meanwhile, Ashwin is bowling well in the ongoing Test match against Bangladesh at the Holkar Stadium in Indore where he became the third Indian bowler to take 250 wickets at home after Anil Kumble and Harbhajan Singh. However, what stood out the most were two of his brilliant deliveries that got rid of Bangladesh's left as well as right-handed batsmen.

Ashwin's floater gets the better of Mominul

Mominul Haque was rebuilding the innings for his side. Just when the Bangladesh skipper looked to gather momentum, he was undone by a beautiful delivery by Ashwin. It happened on the very first ball of the 38th over where Ashwin bowled a floater which had straightened after pitching that totally left Mominul confused as he decided to leave the ball at the very last moment. The move completely backfired and he ended up losing his off stump. The video was posted by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on their official Twitter handle. Watch it right here.

Apart from a floater that left the Bangladesh Test captain completely bamboozled, Ashwin also managed to pick up one more wicket with a delivery that tricked the batsman in playing a wrong shot. On the first ball of the 46th over, Ashwin had bowled a straighter delivery on off stump and Mahmudullah went across the stumps to play a sweep shot only to miss a straighter one completely and his timber is disturbed.
