Indian openning Virender Sehwag has said that Sri Lankan spinner Suraj Randiv, who starved of him a hundred in last night's ODI tri-series match by deliberately bowling a no-ball, has apologized for his conduct.
Sehwag was just one run short of his 13th ODI hundred when Randiv, who had not bowled a no-ball in the Test or ODI series in this period, bowled one which was hit by Sehwag for a six.
However, it did not count because the no-ball amounted to India's winning run leaving Sehwag on an unbeaten 99.
Randiv's antics were criticized by Sehwag in the post match press conference but the issue is now being closed after the Lankan bowler offered apologies.
"Randiv came to my room and apologized," Sehwag wrote on his Twitter page.
India comprehensively won by 6 wickets last night's match but the conduct of the Sri Lankan team upset the visitors' camp.
Minutes after the game, a furious Sehwag told reporters that Sri Lanka had used such tactics earlier also, pointing out that they had left Sachin Tendulkar stranded at 96 with a same strategy in a match in Cuttack.
Sri Lankan Cricket, on its part, has already conveyed its apologies for the incident to the Indians and has even promised action after getting the team manager's report on the matter.
