'Hypocrisy at its best' - DC owner Parth Jindal comes out in support of Ravi Ashwin after Shane Warne's 'disgraceful' remark

Ravichandran Ashwin has hogged the spotlight for his conduct on the field in the match between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Delhi Capitals (DC). During the 19th over of the Delhi Capitals’ (DC) innings, Ravichandran Ashwin attempted a second run after the ball hit Rishabh Pant’s arm and changed direction at the non-striker’s end.

Ashwin was dismissed off the first delivery of the 20th over, and words were exchanged between Morgan and Ashwin following the latter’s dismissal.

And, Australian cricket legend Shane Warne tore into Ashwin for his act. Adding that what Ashwin did was ‘disgraceful’, Warne opined that the cricketing world should not be divided on this topic and such an act should never be done on the cricket field.

The Aussie spin wizard even added that Eoin Morgan had all the rights to ‘nail’ Ashwin for his act. “The world shouldn’t be divided on this topic and Ashwin. It’s pretty simple – it’s disgraceful & should never happen. Why does Ashwin have to be that guy again? I think Eoin Morgan had every right to nail him !!!!,” tweeted Warne.
