However, while batting Shikhar Dhawan was warned by R Ashwin during the IPL 2023 match. Ashwin while bowling for the Rajasthan Royals in the first innings issued a warning to Shikhar Dhawan who had left his crease before the veteran off-spinner had completed his action. On this occasion, the main highlight was seeing Jos Buttler’s face during the incident who has been one of the key victims of R Ashwin being run out at the nonstriker’s end in the past.

While chasing the target the hosts never got going in the match and R Ashwin who had come in to open in place of Jos Buttler was dismissed for a duck by Arshdeep Singh. Buttler who came after his dismissal also walked back for 19 and Yashasvi Jaiswal as well was also not able to continue the heroics he showed in the last match.
Rajasthan Royals skipper Sanju Samson played a 42-run knock and tried to handle the innings for a while but soon got out and didn’t receive any support from the other end. None of the RR batsmen got going during the match and everyone ended up getting out after playing cameos. In the end, the hosts lost the match by five runs.
