the papers ive read say there was sledging on the pitch, which most of us saw, and then inside somewhere on the way to the dressing rooms it continued and jadeja and jimmy fronted up and alledgedly jimmy pushed him away-which was witnessed by indian players and officials.Seems a storm in a tea cup...obviously you cannot be throwing punches but there is no suggestion any were thrown.
I'm sure on these boards there are those that support their own teams, Anderson banned or a minor incident blown out of all proportion if you support England(like myself)
I think the fact that the Indian team completley by passed the match officials and went to the ICC perhaps shows how they think they can run cricket,ignoring the procedure for any 'incidents'
If India think they have been wronged fair enough-the complaint should of been made to the match officials-they are in charge of the match.
The India team manager Sunil Dev, who lodged the complaint, told ESPN Cricinfo on Tuesday: “Mahi [Dhoni] and everyone complained that he physically touched him [Jadeja] and pushed him,” Dev said. “It was all over the dressing room. It is serious matter only because you can’t push anybody. So I put in a complaint with the match referee.”
The level three offence, which is what Anderson has been charged with, is the most serious offence under the ICC code of conduct and he could face a four-Test ban.
----First notified to match referee and then you press charges with the ICC.
Asked if India would rather have Anderson out of the England team than in it, Cook said: “Yeah, I think so, I think that’s pretty much where it’s come from.”
---Cook just cant do anything right on the filed and off the field.
Indians are scared of Anderson. He will just run through a side. Yeah right!!!
India is worried about its own bowling more than the opposition batting or bowling.
They have a fantastic batting side.
