Now obviously Ravichandran Ashwin was present at the nets. The all-rounder after sweating it out was seen letting his hair down. He was seen replicating Sanath Jayasuriya’s bowling action. He was seen diagonally crossing the space between the umpire. Ashwin was seen getting a bit of turn from the action. The clip was shared on social media with Ashwin practising with the pink ball.

While speaking about the pink ball Ashwin said that its a challenge to play with the same as it has a lacquer, "Obviously, it's a challenge to play with the pink ball. The ball has a lot more lacquer. I haven't even bowled a single ball with the pink ball. Obviously I just saw it. Sometimes I don't understand if its orange or pink, still coming to terms with that," Ashwin had said on Thursday after the end of 1st day's play against Bangladesh in the 1st Test.
