Ravichandran Ashwin Is Hungry For Wickets On His Return, Sends Hashim Amla Back To The Pavilion For Starters
Amla made 35 off 54 deiveries
He didn't play against Pakistan, he was sorely missed against Sri Lanka, and now he's back with a bang against South Africa. And trust us, he now has an aggravated appetite for wickets. On Sunday's do-or-die Champions Trophy clash against South Africa, he's chipped in for India with Hashim Amla's crucial wicket.
The South Africans - Amla and Quinton de Kock - were consolidating a partnership but Ashwin kept the line and length to remove Amla, who was about to open up and prove to be threatening.
It was a good length ball that pitched outside the off stump. Amla tried to slice it through the off side but ended up nicking it and giving away a catch to MS Dhoni.
Amla was dimissed in the 18th over of the match and fifth over of Ashwin's spell. Amla made 35 off 54 deliveries.
