Jasprit Bumrah and Ravindra Jadeja pulled Ashwin's leg en route to Kanpur, using the widely used ‘Thala for a reason’ phrase.

In the video, Ashwin can be seen wearing a cool pair of shades in the airplane, and Bumrah cheekily said, 'Anna for a reason' as the camera panned towards the off-spinner. Jadeja who was sitting with Ashwin joined in on the fun as well, repeating what Bumrah said and then loudly saying 'Ash anna'.

Ravichandran Ashwin was teased by his teammates Jasprit Bumrah and Ravindra Jadeja during the Indian players' flight to Kanpur ahead of the second Test against Bangladesh. Ashwin said he got 'bullied' as Bumrah and Jadeja who used an iconic MS Dhoni-inspired meme reference to pull the legs of 'Ash Anna'.
