David Warner bating right-handed to Ravichandran Ashwin (X)
David Warner batted right-handed against Ravichandran Ashwin but the Indian bowler managed to get his wicket lbw.
David Warner shocked everyone when he took guard right-handed against Ravichandran Ashwin during the second one-day international of the three-match series at Holkar Stadium in Indore on Sunday.
The incident happened in the 13th over of the Australian innings.
Warner went onto complete his half-century off just 38 balls, hitting 7 gours and one six.
In fact, when Ashwin returned with the ball in the 15th over, Warner was trapped leg-before wicket on the very first ball.
Replays showed that Warner had edged the ball onto his pads but he did not ake the review.

WATCH:
Earlier, Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer smashed sparkling centuries, while captain KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav lit up the innings with their blazing half-centuries. India managed to post a mammoth total of 399/5.
On a flat pitch with small ground dimensions, India’s batters feasted on a relatively inexperienced bowling attack to post their highest ODI total against Australia. Gill continued his sizzling run in the format, making 104 off 97 balls, his fifth ODI century this year, laced with six fours and four sixes.
Iyer brushed aside question marks over his form and fitness with his first ODI century of this year – 105 off 90 balls, with the help of 11 fours and three sixes. After the duo fell post sharing a 200-run partnership, Rahul ensured the momentum was continued through his 38-ball 52, his second straight fifty, hitting three fours and as many sixes.
Suryakumar delighted the Sunday crowd in the stadium with an exhibition of boundary-striking by hammering an unbeaten 72 off 37 deliveries, hitting six fours and as many sixes, including hitting four maximums on the trot off Cameron Green. He also reached his fifty in 24 balls, breaking the previous fastest ODI fifty for India against Australia record set by Virat Kohli off 27 balls in Jaipur in 2013.
