Ashwin condemns attack on Australian team bus

Ashwin condemns attack on Australian team bus

New Delhi: The Australian cricket team survived a security scare after the second T20 International against India when a "rock" was thrown at the team bus, leaving the visiting players scared.


Luckily, no player got injured as the nearest seat to the window pane remained unoccupied.


The Incident took place after the Aussies were returning back to the city hotel after their eight-wicket win over the hosts at the Barsapara stadium.


While, the members of current Indian squad are yet to make a comment on the incident, Indian off-spinner Ashwin took to Twitter to condemn the attack on the visiting side.


The 31-year-old wrote, “The stone thrown at the Aussie team bus shows us in bad light, let's all act more responsibly. A vast majority of us are capable of that.”




“We are a country that treats ours guests with great respect and hospitality.” Wrote Ashwin on his Twitter handle.




This is not the first attack on the Australian team in the Asian sub-continent. The Aussies faced similar attack in Bangladesh last month.
