Later, Cameron Green took command of Australia A batting en route to scoring a brisk 114 against the Indian bowlers.

The seasoned campaigner accounted for the wickets of Marcus Harris and Nic Maddinson. Interestingly, there was a stage when the off-spinner was bowling with a cap on, thus making quite an unusual sight for cricketing fans the world over. The International Cricket Council (ICC) decided to cash in on the opportunity as they took to their social media accounts and shared a picture of a ‘capped’ R Ashwin in action against Australia A. In the description, ICC asked their fans and followers if anyone of them has ever seen a player bowling with his cap before. Apparently, fans decided to brutally mock the apex body for their question as they responded with many players (from men’s and women’s cricket) who are known for wearing caps while bowling. Here is a look at ICC’s post and some of the most hilarious and brutal fan reactions to the same.
