India vs Australia: Steve Smith's DRS-row reminds R Ashwin of Under-10 game — VIDEO
Ashwin completed a six-wicket haul to help India to a much needed win.
New Delhi: Ace spinner Ravichandran Ashwin was at his eloquent best when he shared his take on the infamous Steve Smith DRS-row which highlighted the second India-Australia match at Bengaluru.
In a BCCI.tv video, Ashwin was seen chatting with his India team-mate Cheteshwar Pujara. The stars discussed at length about the match, which India won by 75 runs to level the series.
"Steven Smith actually turned back and asked the dressing room if he could take a review," Ashwin said. "That is completely unheard of. The last time I thought that to happen was in an Under-10 game, when my coach used to suggest where point fielders and cover fielders used to stand.
"It was really surprising. I have a lot of respect for Steven Smith, but that was very very surprising."

"Well, see, they were talking a lot and probably sledging is something which, as a unit, we felt that we can give them back," Pujara said.
"They were always under pressure when they walked in to bat, and I wanted to make sure their batsmen were thinking about it, especially David Warner. Whenever he walks in to bat, Ash [Ashwin] is always happy, so I always keep reminding him that Ash is the one who picks [up his wicket]," he added.
