Usually, when a mixup occurs between the two batters against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), it leads to one of them walking back to the pavilion with fielders having a simple runout chance at hand. However, the CSK all-rounder, Moeen Ali did the unusual, missing a simple chance to run out R Ashwin by missing his throw by a huge margin.
While batting first against CSK, Rajasthan Royals (RR) managed to score 135/4 by the end of 15 overs owing to the aggressive knock from the fiery opener, Jos Buttler. Buttler has crossed the fifty-run mark and is having a brilliant day on a pitch that was assisting the spinners to some extent. where there is assistance for the spinners.

However, on the other side, there is Moeen Ali who had a horrendous day on the field and was also smacked with some massive hits while bowling. Moeen had already dropped a couple of half-chances in the innings but his blunder in the 14th overdrew a lot of criticism. Ravichandran Ashwin pushed the third ball over from Maheesh Theekshana to cover.
Moeen Ali was standing inside the 30-yard circle and Ashwin intended to sneak a single and was halfway down the track. However, Jos Buttler was hesitant to go for the run and there was a mix-up between the two.

Firstly, Moeen Ali failed to collect the ball and even after the ball but when he collected it with a resolute mind, a clear-cut run-out opportunity was on the cards with Ashwin miles away from the batting crease. The England all-rounder then scripted a twist in the tale missing his aim with a throw that was well wide of Dhoni.
