RR vs KXIP | Twitter left divided as Ravichandran Ashwin Mankads Jos Buttler
As Jos Buttler was in fine touch, Ravichandran Ashwin did something unbelievable. He noticed that Jos Buttler was leaving the non-striker's end before the ball was even bowled and he Mankad-ed him. Some Twitterati defended Ashwin and the others slammed him for his poor display of sportsmanship.
Here are the tweets :People were quick to slam Ashwin for doing this!
Buttler was still in his crease as Ashwin was in his delivery stride. Absolute shithouse. pic.twitter.com/dMp0iiw4i6

The England captain also came to the support of his countryman!
I can’t believe what I’m seeing!! @IPL Terrible example to set for young kids coming through. In time I think Ashwin will regret that.

Even the fans turned on Ashwin!

When you can't bowl and get Jos Buttler out, Mankad him!
@ashwinravi99 is a sore loser. Couldn't get Butler out used illegal way.. Haha.. Not even a warning given. #RRvKXIP #VIVOIPL

People even attacked his captaincy!
How can @ashwinravi99 be a captain of a team with such actions, poor from him.#RRvKXIP

Ashwin definitely could've handled it better!
Sorry @ashwinravi99 but that was unnecessary and uncalled for. Should have asked Buttler to stay and handled the situation. #ipl2019 #RRvKXIP

But there were people who defended Ashwin's actions!
Ha Ashwin😂 @IPL Well within his rights, fair play to him! #RRvKXIP #Buttler Cry Baby should win this now for RR!

All is fair in love and war!
Law is above The Mythical Spirit of The Game. Don’t fret. Don’t frown. #Ashwin #Buttler #RRvKXIP #IPL

And then there are people like Scott Styris!
My opinion on the Buttler/Ashwin controversy is that its NOT Buttlers fault and its NOT Ashwins fault either

Ashwin is entitled to appeal
I thought the TV umpire made the incorrect decision
Shouldve been dead ball..... play on
You had to expect this. The "Roar of the Lion" series hasn't helped much it seems...
Graduated from #CSK 'Cheating' Academy! #Ashwin#RRvKXIP 🚶🏻🚶🏻🚶🏻

Now, this is hilarious!
Some early footage of Ashwin being the victim of a Mankad.

He has sought revenge ever since... pic.twitter.com/8znWEiZRal
Closing with the best tweet on this incident! :P
Mankading Smith would have been an epic troll. No one would have bothered to talk about Spirit of cricket. 🤣
