After Ravichandran Ashwin's Mankading, Fans Went Crazy On Social Media And Tagged The Wrong Jos Buttler!
This is pretty funny.
Ravichandran Ashwin brought out the first controversy of IPL 2019 when he mankaded Jos Buttler. While he was within the rule, it was deemed as unsporting. Of course, it became quite a rage on Twitter.

But in their haste to express their opinion about the incident, many fans made one error. They tagged the wrong Jos Buttler! Yes, the man they ended up tagging was Josh Butler, and no, he was not the cricketer. The man himself was very surprised and showed his astonishment on Twitter:
I have been getting messages and tags and mentions from upset Indian cricket fans all morning - some angry, some supportive - because they have mistaken me for English cricketer Jos Buttler, it's been quite a day for me on twitter dot com https://t.co/ikEO8w8lmP

Not the first time something like this has happened. But, it is pretty funny. That individual also saw the funny side of it. The moral of the story is that always verify before you tag somebody on social media.
