McClenaghan believes that R Ashwin will play a crucial role in silencing Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma during IPL 2024.

Former New Zealand fast bowler Mitchell McClenaghan believes that R Ashwin, the spinner for RR, will play a crucial role in putting pressure on SRH openers Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma during Qualifier 2 of IPL 2024. McClenaghan emphasized the importance of Ashwin's performance in keeping Head and Abhishek from settling in and playing their natural aggressive game with the bat.

Ashwin's impressive 19/2 spell in RR's recent Eliminator match against RCB highlights his current form and effectiveness in the tournament. This strong performance has raised expectations for another impactful display from Ashwin in the upcoming match against SRH. In contrast, both Head and Abhishek struggled in SRH's previous match against KKR, being dismissed for low scores of 0 and 3 respectively.
