Indian off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin took a dig at Dhaka while leaving the city for India after winning the Asia Cup T20 final against Bangladesh at Sher-e-Bangla stadium, Mirpur, Dhaka.
Indian bowling coach R Shridhar quoted captain Dhoni and Ashwin and tweeted, “had we taken the ball, we could’ve avoided the Dhaka traffic” last night while marching towards the airport.

Indian won the summit clash by eight wickets. Bangladesh batting first scored 120, India chased down the target with seven balls remaining as MS Dhoni hit a big six off Al-Amin Hossain.
Bangladesh capital Dhaka is a congested place where traffic at times is worse than any other Indian cities.
@coach_rsridhar just for jolly?
