Jos Buttler humiliated Washington Sundar over his cocky claim of India winning the third Test match against England at Lord's, which they eventually lost.
After equalling England's first innings score, India delivered an exceptional performance with the ball in the third innings of the match to bundle out the Three Lions for 192.
With 6 wickets still in hand, India fancied their chances for a historic Test win at Lord's on Day 5. All-rounder Washington Sundar, who was full of confidence after decimating England's batting unit with his four-wicket haul, went on to make a big claim after the end of the play on Day 4.
That, however, didn't happen as India were awful with the bat on the fifth day and despite Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammed Siraj, and Jasprit Bumrah's fightback, the visitors got bowled out for 170, facing a 22-run loss.
That would have got people so fired up - Jos Buttler
“Has he actually said that? Washington Sundar's interview where he says about, you know, when India win tomorrow, when we go 2-1 up. And I thought, I wonder if he's just sort of, you know, got his words out wrong, you know, hopefully we'll win.
McCullum over the balcony sort of you know telling everyone to raise it - Jos Buttler
Jos Buttler further highlighted how England's head coach, Brendon McCullum, gestured from the Lord's balcony to his team to start chirping as soon as Washington Sundar arrived in the middle to get under his skin. Buttler felt that Sundar made himself the target with his comments, and it was a horrible thing to do.
“You set yourself up, don't you? It's horrible. But you're like, no, everyone's all over me. I could have just come out here and tried to, you know, have a good game and try my best. But now everyone knows that what I've said in the media last night, and this is going to be, everyone's after me. Even McCullum, who's possibly the only time he didn't have his feet up. He's leant forward to say, come on. Let's ramp it up for this guy,” he added.
