Delhi Capitals spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has revealed his side's coach Ricky Ponting and RCB captain Virat Kohli were involved in a heated altercation.
Manjrekar feels that Ashwin will face tough competition from Washington Sundar, who as well has been impressive for the Royal Challengers Bangalore this season.
The match progressed into the last over but KXIP ultimately chased down the total with six deliveries to spare.
Ravichandran Ashwin registered figures of 2/22 in four overs as Delhi Capitals secured a comprehensive 46-run win over Rajasthan Royals on Friday.
Ravichandran Ashwin also revealed when he will start dislodging the bails instead of warning the batsmen.
Delhi Capitals beat Royal Challengers Bangalore by 59 runs in Dubai. R Ashwin praised his team mate Prithvi Shaw by saying that he is a phenomenal talent and when he hits the ball the ball makes a lovely sound from the bat.

Ponting might be delighted, but Ashwin later tweeted to clarify that this was his final warning to batters this season and that he would not refrain from Mankading them if caught outside the non-striker's crease the next time
It was in the second over the game when Ashwin, bowling to Devdutt Padikkal, stopped whilst his action to catch Finch well outside the crease. Ashwin had all the time in the world to run out Finch, but he only left him with a warning.
There is yet no official confirmation from the franchise about the injury and Ashwin's availability for the next game.
Delhi Capitals are yet to make an official announcement on his injury, but captain Shreyas Iyer revealed that in a conversation with Ashwin.

Ashwin captained KXIP last season and this year he will be joining Indian team mates Shikhar Dhawan, Ajinkya Rahane, Rishabh Pant, Prithvi Shaw and captain Shreyas Iyer, among others.
Ashwin, who was in the spotlight last IPL after dismissing Jos Buttler during a Kings XI Punjab versus Rajasthan Royals encounter, did something that his current IPL coach didn't endorse.
Moved out of India due to rising cases of COVID-19, the 13th edition of the world's biggest T20 league will be held across three venues in the UAE from September 19 to November 10.
Ponting is more concerned about the non-striker stealing a few extra yards calling it "cheating" and still feels that Mankading is not the right option
Earlier last month, Ponting, in an interview mentioned that he would have a "hard conversation" with Ashwin over the Mankading debate.
Jindal said rules are meant to be followed, days after the issue again became a talking point when Ricky Ponting said he would not allow the spinner to resort to 'Mankading'
The 25-year-old also talked about head coach Ricky Ponting and claims that the legendary Aussie makes everyone comfortable in the camp and gave him freedom as a captain.
With recent development surrounding the dismissal and Ricky Ponting's comment, Ashwin once again took the opportunity calling for a healthy debate on the topic with Anderson.
