Ashwin, leading the Dragons, was adjudged leg-before off left-arm spinner R Sai Kishore in the fifth over after coming out to open the innings. He looked in ominous touch as he raced to 18 with a couple of boundaries and a six off the first 10 deliveries. Ashwin had to pay the price of his erratic behaviour on the field that prompted the officials to hand him a total of 30 percent penalty for the act. "Ashwin was fined 10 percent for showing dissent towards the umpires and 20 percent for misuse of equipment. He accepted the sanctions," a TNPL official told Cricbuzz. It was the 11th delivery that he faced, which was the fifth ball of the fifth over, Ashwin tried to play the paddle sweep but the delivery struck him on the pads. Umpire Venkatesan Krithika raised his finger to an appeal from the bowler as Ashwin was scampering home for a quick single. From the replays, it was clear that the ball pitched outside the leg-stump. Ashwin couldn't appeal for DRS as he and his opening partner Shivam Singh (30 off 27 balls) had exhausted their quota of referrals in the first over itself on leg-side wide deliveries (new rule introduced in TNPL).

R Ashwin fined for outburst on umpires during TNPL game
Former Indian cricketer R Ashwin has been fined 30 per cent for a breach of the code of conduct during the Tamil Nadu Premier League game between Dindigul Dragons and Tiruppur Tamizhans held on Sunday. 'There was a hearing conducted by the match referee after the game,' a TNPL official told Cricbuzz. 'Ashwin was fined 10 per cent for showing dissent towards the umpires and 20 per cent for misuse of equipment. He accepted the sanctions.' The 38-year-old who plays for Dindigul Dragons was judged LBW off the bowling of Sai Kishore, who plays for Tiruppur Tamizhans. Ashwin was seen in a long argument with the umpire Venkatesan Krithika, and he was thundering off the field and was seen hitting his pads in anger with the bat. 'Ashwin is saying 'he has bowled this from over the stumps, ma'am', arguing his case that it was pitched well outside leg stump,' said one of the commentators on AIR during the incident. The TNPL has two DRS per innings, and when this incident happened in the fifth over, Ashwin's team, Dindigul Dragons, had exhausted both their reviews, that too in the first over. Ashwin's opening partner, Shivam Singh, used both the DRS options in a valiant attempt to overturn two legitimate calls made by Venkatesan Krithika for a wide. With the new leg-side wide rule in place, Shivam was guilty of moving across, which the umpire noticed and called it a fair delivery. But Shivam in consultation with Ashwin, took DRS in the hope that it would be ruled a wide and ended up losing both the reviews. Dragons could not put on much of a score after Ashwin fell. Ashwin's 18 is the second-highest score alongside RK Jayant. Shivam Singh, with his 30, was the top scorer as the Dragons were bundled out for a mere 93 runs from 16.2 overs. Esakkimuthu A was the pick of the bowlers for Tamizhans with four wickets, with M Mathivannan picking three wickets. Skipper Sai Kishore too chipped in with a couple. Tamizhans chased the total in 11.5 overs for the loss of one wicket. Tushar Raheja with his 39-ball 65 was the top scorer of the innings. Ganeshan Periyaswamy was the lone wicket-tacker for Dragons.

India's second highest wicket-taker was so stunned was infuriated and was seen animatedly asking Krithika about the decision. Umpire Krithika initially looked through him as they crossed paths but later turned to justify her decision. Ashwin was visibly annoyed and while leaving the ground made sure that everyone around knew how he felt. While returning, he first smashed his bat onto his leg guards to let some steam out and then as he reached near the boundary ropes, he opened his gloves and flung them in disgust. Worse, Ashwin's team lost the match by a comprehensive nine-wicket margin.

NEW DELHI: , captain of the Dindigul Dragons and former India all-rounder, has been fined 30 percent of his match fee for showing dissent during a Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) 2025 game against IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans on Sunday (June 8) in Coimbatore. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. The incident occurred in the fifth over of the Dindigul innings when Ashwin was adjudged LBW by on-field umpire Kritika while attempting a sweep off R Sai Kishore. The ball appeared to pitch outside leg stump, and with no review remaining — both had already been used for wide-ball calls — Ashwin was visibly upset. He remonstrated with the umpire, pointing toward the pitch and arguing his case before walking off in frustration. Poll Do you think Ravichandran Ashwin's fine was justified? Yes, he showed dissent. No, the umpire made a mistake. Partially, he could have reacted better. Ashwin's reaction included hitting his pads with the bat and later throwing his gloves in the dugout, behavior that led to a disciplinary hearing post-match. "Ashwin was fined 10 percent for showing dissent towards the umpires and 20 percent for misuse of equipment. He accepted the sanctions," a TNPL official told Cricbuzz. WATCH: The moment went viral online, with many fans siding with Ashwin after replay footage suggested the delivery had indeed pitched outside leg stump. Despite his quick-fire 18 off 11 balls, Ashwin's dismissal at 39/1 triggered a Dindigul collapse. They were bowled out for just 93 in 16.2 overs. Tiruppur Tamizhans made light work of the chase, cruising to a nine-wicket victory with 49 balls remaining, thanks to a dominant unbeaten 65 off 39 balls from Tushar Raheja. Esakkimuthu starred with the ball, picking up 4/26.
