Ravichandran Ashwin took to Twitter during Australia’s five-wicket win over Pakistan in the T20 World Cup semi-finals in Dubai to comment on David Warner’s six off Mohammad Hafeez.
On Thursday, Ashwin responded to Gautam Gambhir’s “spirit of the game” tweet, which sparked the debate. “Warner’s disinterest in the game was appalling! What do you think about #Shameful @ashwinravi99?” After Warner hit a six off Hafeez’s misplaced double-bounce delivery on Thursday, Gambhir took to Twitter to express his displeasure.
Ashwin responded to the tweet, “According to his logic, as long as this is correct, then that was correct. If that was incorrect, this is also incorrect. That’s correct, isn’t it?”
In response to the tweet, Ashwin stated, ‘If this is correct, then that was correct.’ If that was incorrect, this is also incorrect. No, I don’t believe so.
Ashwin was referring to the backlash he received after ‘Mankading’ Jos Buttler earlier this year in an IPL match
“Warner simply played the ball in front of him and did nothing wrong,” one Twitter user responded to Ashwin’s tweet.
Ashwin was referring to the backlash he received after ‘Mankading’ Jos Buttler earlier this year in an IPL match.
Matthew Wade’s unbeaten 41 off 17 balls, including three sixes off Shaheen Afridi in the 19th over, led Australia to a five-wicket semi-final victory.
Australia and New Zealand will compete in the final in Dubai on Sunday.
