In Delhi Capitals three-wicket loss to Kolkata Knight Riders, Ashwin had a verbal exchange with Kolkata Knight Riders skipper Eoin Morgan and Tim Southee after he grabbed an extra run following a throw that ricocheted off his partner and Delhi captain Rishabh Pant’s arm in the final over of Delhi’s innings.

“So when the ball ricochets off Ben Stokes for 4 additional runs which single handedly allows England to win the 50 over World Cup there are no issues? But when Ash takes an extra run the world goes crazy? #Hypocrisy at its best - fully behind you @ashwinravi99,” wrote Jindal on Twitter on Thursday.
Former Indian opener Aakash Chopra too backed Ashwin in the matter by tweeting, “Whatever is within the laws of the game is within the spirit of the game. Don’t allow anyone to tell you otherwise. Does a batsman walk when he nicks? Does a bowler appeal even when he’s not 100% sure? Is that not a violation of the so-called ‘Spirit’?”
