Ravichandran Ashwin is one of India’s ex-cricketers who is very much active on social media platforms. The 22-yard maestro has confused batsmen with his spin for over a decade, but his latest tweet has confused his fans and followers. R. Ashwin posted two pictures; one was of Sunny Leone, and the other was of a lane.

The viral tweet
Ashwin is one of those ex-cricketers who is still delving into the very minute details of the game. He replies to fan queries and gives his own opinions about the game. He is also involved in podcasts and reviews and is one of the respected voices in the community. Ashwin took it to X to post a collage of two images; one was of actress Sunny Leone, and the other was of a lane. Most people on the internet connect it with ‘Sunny Sandhu,’ a Tamil Nadu-based cricketer.

Connection between ‘Sunny Sandhu’ and his tweet
The word ‘Sandhu” means alley or a narrow lane in Tamil. The collage had the pictures of actress Sunny Leone and a picture of an alley, so we can draw a meaning from the collage. Sunny Sandhu is an all-rounder who played an explosive knock of 30 runs from just 9 balls, helping Saurashtra sail to the target against Saurashtra in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy match. Ravichandran Ashwin must have commemorated the fighting innings by posting a collage of the two images, rather a fun puzzle for his audience to solve. The fans have also stirred their bytes in this tweet; some claim it was just a puzzle that commemorates the great inning of Sunny Sandhu, while others claim Ashwin is hinting at something more informative. A fan has retweeted, mentioning, "No worries, na, you can openly say it. Sunny Sandhu is all set to land in CSK," as he tweeted this days ahead of the IPL mini-auction.
