    AB: Ashwin did nothing wrong

    Bangalore Royal Challengers star AB de Villiers has formally commented on the controversial run-out of Rajasthan Royals batsman Jos Buttler in the Indian Premier League earlier this month.

    ‘Ashwin seemed to pause to allow Buttler to go out of his ground and then obviously he put the wicket down; Buttler did not really make much of an effort to get back into his ground. It is one where we just felt the pause was just too long and therefore not within the spirit of cricket.’
