Ashwin Paddles Into Spirit Of The Game Debate, Says 'I Am Not A Disgrace'
Delhi Capitals' off-spinner R Ashwin has denied any knowledge that the ball had deflected off his skipper Rishab Pant's body as he ran for overthrow, which drew a sharp reaction from Kolkata Knight Riders players with KKR skipper Eoin Morgan terming Ashwin as a "disgrace".
In a series of tweets on Thursday, Ashwin presented his side of the incident in the 19th over of their match against KKR that had caused an onfield confrontation between him and KKR's Tim Southee and Morgan. Overthrows off a batter's body is looked down upon by some though they are legal under the laws of the game. Batters usually don't run for overthrows if the ball deflects off their or their batting partner's body. But Ashwin did that during the match against KKR on Tuesday. He also said he would do so again as it was allowed by the rules of the game.
