Fans trolled Rajasthan Royals on Sunday after the IPL franchise shared a seemingly edited photo of their group picture.
Fans suggested that a sitting Ashwin was superimposed into the picture taken at one of the corners.On another hand, fans commented that his face was cropped over Sandeep Sharma’s body while he also seemed to have acquired biceps in an unusual pic.
As fans began mocking the team’s mistake, the photo went viral on various social media platforms.
Kumar Sangakkara, Royals’ Director of Cricket, agreed that tiredness contributed towards their poor finish during the later stages of the IPL which may have derailed their campaign.
RR won eight out of nine games initially and remained in contention for top two. However, three defeats and one washout match resulted in Sanju Samson-led side ending up third on table.
Sunrisers Hyderabad proved too good for RR in Qualifier 2 at Ahmedabad on Friday after they had bounced back from elimination by RCB.
