Jos Buttler Sparks Outrage After Expletive-Laden Rant At Vernon Philander

Date:

Jos Buttler could be in for some trouble with the International Cricket Council (ICC) after a video of his x-rated rant at South African cricketer Vernon Philander went viral on Twitter. On a tense final day during the second Test between hosts South Africa and England, the stump mic picked up Buttler launching an angry tirade at the South African after he appeared to get in the way of a throw to the English wicketkeeper. Social media was buzzing with many slamming the Englishman for his foul-mouthed rant but former England batsman Kevin Pietersen jumped to the defense of Buttler.

“Get out the f*****g way,” said Buttler, prompting Philander to stare back at him. Buttler, though, didn’t stop and continued his abusive tirade.

Ben Stokes, who was stationed at first slip, also joined him, saying: “Don’t stare him out. He’s got a point, mate.”

Pietersen attached the video of the incident and called for Buttler to be left alone, saying “this is Test Cricket and believe me, this is nothing compared to lots that goes on, on the field”.
