Virender Sehwag calls R Ashwin ‘Scientist’ after Bangladesh win; tweet goes viral

Ravichandran Ashwin and Shreyas Iyer held firm as India defeated Bangladesh in a thrilling second Test in Mirpur on Sunday, dashing hopes of a first-ever win over their giant neighbours. Ashwin (42 not out) and Iyer (29) put on 71 runs for the eighth wicket as India eventually won the game. “The scientist did it. Somehow got this one. Brilliant innings from Ashwin and wonderful partnership with Shreyas Iyer,” Sehwag captioned a meme on Twitter.
