The most popular interpretation is that Ashwin’s post is a coded reference to Tamil Nadu cricketer Sunny Sandhu. In Tamil, the word “sandhu” translates to an alley or small lane—explaining the second image in the collage.

The post coincides with Sandhu’s impressive performance in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, where he delivered a crucial late flourish for Tamil Nadu.

With the IPL mini-auction set for December 16 in Abu Dhabi, speculation is growing that Ashwin might be hinting at Chennai Super Kings’ interest in picking up Sunny Sandhu
