The on-field action also saw Ravichandran Ashwin coming close to dismissing Australian batter Marnus Labuschagne at the non-striker’s end. With Marnus at non-strikers, Ashwin stopped at delivering the ball despite taking a run-up in the 19th over of the inning on Day 1. He stopped and checked Marnus’ position who was quick to put the bat inside the crease.
