#1 Jos Buttler by Sachithra Senanayake
The incident took place in the final match of the ODI series between England and Sri Lanka in 2014, when Sri Lankan spinner Senanayake took off the bails at the non-striker's end where the non-striking batsman Jos Buttler had backed up too far and was out of his crease.
The Lankan spinner had warned Buttler in the previous over before finally taking off the stumps. After the incident, the umpires asked the Sri Lanka captain, Angelo Mathews, whether he wanted to withdraw the appeal. He confirmed that he did not and the umpires had no option. Buttler was given out by the third umpire. That left England 199 for 7 - they ended up making 219 in the deciding ODI of the series.
After the match, England captain said that he wasn't happy with the way Buttler was given out as it was against the spirit of the game, while the Lankan captain defended the spinner's actions saying that it was well within the rule to mankad a batsman.
