New Delhi: India cricketer Ambati Rayadu has allegedly manhandled and slapped a senior citizen who reportedly objected to his rash driving. The video of the incident has went viral on Thursday, on a day when the national team is taking on Sri Lanka in the fourth ODI match at Colombo.

Reports claimed that Rayudu was driving his SUV rashly in Hyderabad, and very close to the morning walkers near the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. Then, a senior citizen, who refused to talk to media, reportedly advised him to drive slow.

But the 31-year-old got angry, applied brakes and started shouting at the elder. It was followed by an altercation, with other morning walkers and onlookers coming in the support of the senior citizen.
