This is How Ravichandran Ashwin Helped Ajaz Patel Get Verified on Twitter
News 18India beat New Zealand by a mammoth 372-run margin in the recently concluded second Test to clinch the series 1-0. While Indian spin maestro Ravichandran Ashwin won his ninth Man of the Series award as he was almost unplayable, another spinner, New Zealand’s Ajaz Patel too made headlines after becoming the only third player in history to take all 10 wickets in an innings. Ashwin took to Twitter, tagged ‘The Verified blue badge source’ page, and wrote, “Dear @verified, a ten wicket bag in an innings definitely deserves to be verified here! Earlier, Ashwin whose game awareness and alertness on the cricket field has a separate fanbase found himself in a rather unusual situation where fans and viewers were left dumbfounded after the cricketer took an unusual review instantly after being dismissed in the first innings of the second Test on Saturday. It all began when Ashwin walked out in the middle following the departure of Wriddhiman Saha and took his guard to face the first delivery by New Zealand spinner Ajaz Patel.
