Team India and Australia are locking horns with each other in the 2nd Test of the 4-match series at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi The veteran Indian spinner, R Ashwin was been troubling the visitors in the series so far and he was again seen giving a slight scare to Marnus Labuschagne at the non-striker’s end.
Earlier in the game, the Australian skipper, Pat Cummins won the toss again and he had no hesitation in deciding to bat first. The visitors made a couple of changes in the XI as Matt Renshaw and Scott Boland may way for Travis Head and the debutant bowler Matthew Kuhnemann. On the other hand, India made only one change to the winning XI as Shreyas Iyer came in for Suryakumar Yadav.

Coming back to the incident, in the 19th over of the innings, R Ashwin was seen pulling out of his delivery while bowling around the wicket. However, it can’t be definitely said whether he did it to give a warning to Marnus Labuschagne, who was backing up too far as the bowler made a field change and went over the wicket on the next delivery.
Here is the video of R Ashwin giving a warning to Marnus Labuscgane:
