Ashwin takes revenge on Glenn Phillips with an unplayable carrom ball after getting hit for two sixes [WATCH]

Ravichandran Ashwin left New Zealand’s Glenn Phillips absolutely bewildered after knocking over his stumps with an unplayable carrom ball on Day 2 of the ongoing IND vs NZ 3rd Test.

The incident happened on the penultimate ball of the 33rd over of New Zealand’s second innings. It was a gutsy comeback from the veteran Indian spinner who had been hit for two sixes earlier in the over.

Ashwin’s delivery absolutely outfoxed the Kiwi batter as he missed the line of the ball and it went over and toppled the timber. Ashwin could be seen aggressively celebrating by jumping and throwing punches in the air after getting the breakthrough.
