Ashwin also expressed his delight over joining Rajasthan Royals in the auction.
“Hello everyone, I got picked by Rajasthan Royals earlier today. I'm extremely delighted that they picked me. They tried hard to get me in the last auction in 2018 but it's come through finally. I've got a great rapport with all of them. Shared a wonderful rapport with Sanju as well so looking forward to giving my complete best for the franchise and hopefully do some special things over the course of the next three years,” he said.
