In the post uploaded by Jaffer, he shared a screenshot of a scene from the Bollywood movie, 'Lagaan'. In the scene, a young boy was mankaded by a British bowler.
After posting the image of the scene, Jaffer wrote in his caption, “Watchout for these two tonight #RRvsDC #IPL2021.”
Ashwin, who was then leading Kings XI Punjab (Punjab Kings), ran Buttler, who playing a sensational knock for the Royals, out at the non-striker’s end, and the momentum shifted towards the Punjab team and they eventually won that match. Despite his actions were completely fine by the laws, several cricketers and fans criticised his actions.
