IPL 2022: 'Best pic on the internet today'- Twitterati react to RR's R Ashwin and Jos Buttler sharing a laugh

Ashwin and Buttler will share a dressing room for the first time since the IPL 2019 'mankad incident'.

Ashwin mankads Buttler during a IPL 2019 match in Jaipur | TwitterTwitterverse had a field day when Rajasthan Royals (RR) bought ace Indian spinner R Ashwin in the IPL 2022 mega auction, given that they had retained England’s Jos Buttler ahead of the event. Buttler and Ashwin share a rivalry thanks to the bowler running out the batter in a match in IPL 2019.

Leading Punjab Kings back then, Ashwin had 'mankaded' Buttler. The RR batter had said that he was disappointed and that the incident set a bad precedent. Buttler is with the pink franchise since 2018, while Ashwin will be playing for the first time in Rajasthan colors.

Both the senior players are now teammates and will share the dressing room. A few days before the start of the tournament, RR took to Twitter to share a pic of them sharing a laugh during a net session.

The pic has drawn much attention on social media. A user went on to call it the 'best pic on the internet'. And many other users on Twitter shared their reactions to this wonderful photo as well. 

Here are some of them:
