I don't have my rule book on me right now but I believe Camron and paxsonref are correct. It's not a violation to fumble the ball in an attempt to end a dribble. A player could recover the ball in that situation but couldn't dribble again. In the original situation, I don't think that the fumble would be a voilation but when the player is batting the ball trying to regain control it would be a violation. If the player was batting the ball in the air, I'd have a travel. If they were batting a bouncing ball, double dribble.
