Rajasthan Royals wicket-keeper batsman Jos Buttler's controversial dismissal after being 'mankaded' by Kings XI Punjab's skipper Ravichandran Ashwin has left Twitterverse stunned, with many expressing disappointment over Ashwin's action and calling it a "disgraceful act."

During Monday's match, Ashwin noticed that Buttler was advancing out of his crease before he was releasing the ball, so he decided to stop in his action and removed the bails before lodging the appeal. The decision was sent to the third umpire, who decided to rule Buttler out.
