Ravichandran Ashwin ‘Mankading’ Jos Buttler
Ashwin mankading Buttler kickstarted an array of controversies in the 2018 season. Among the modern legends of the game, Ashwin ran out Buttler after the English wicketkeeper-batsman left his crease even before the ball was delivered. The decision was referred to the third umpire who ruled it in favour of the bowler.
Finding this whole Ashwin Buttler incident very interesting. In so many sports doing everything possible to win is lauded but cricket has never been the same as other sports
Ashwin in my opinion is rightly getting criticised for this pic.twitter.com/Z7DggVSoj3

Ashwin’s actions were hugely criticised by the cricket experts who even said that what even said that whet he did was against the spirit of the game. But Ashwin on his part did not shy away from saying that what he did was within the rules of the game. In the next two seasons, he warned several other batsmen from leaving their crease way too early.
